Abolish music prejudices. Form opinions and love music for itself, not its genre, performer(s) or popularity status.

Literary criticism can be no more than a reasoned account of the feeling produced upon the critic by the book he is criticizing. Criticism can never be a science: it is, in the first place, much too personal, and in the second, it is concerned with values that science ignores. The touchstone is emotion, not reason. We judge a work of art by its effect on our sincere and vital emotion, and nothing else. All the critical twiddle-twaddle about style and form, all this pseudoscientific classifying and analysing of books in an imitation-botanical fashion, is mere impertinence and mostly dull jargon.

Les expériences dangereuses, le monde les accepte dans le domaine de l’art parce qu’il ne prend pas l’art au sérieux, mais il les condamne dans la vie.

A midst deceit I found the truth;

there in the rough I found a diamond.

And from the moment we met,

I think of no one else

Today I choose to be, to live and breathe;

to dream, to weep, and to sing in free verse.

And you, the object of my delight:

a like-minded opposite I am myself with,

a mind-fuck times six, seven, eight thousand and three.

I know that you love me with every inch of your deep.

I can’t bear these accounts I read in the Times and elsewhere of these poetry slams, in which various young men and women in various late-spots are declaiming rant and nonsense at each other. The whole thing is judged by an applause meter which is actually not there, but might as well be. This isn’t even silly; it is the death of art.
