 Genius ... is the capacity to see ten things where the ordinary man sees one. |
| Gloom and solemnity are entirely out of place in even the most rigorous study of an art originally intended to make glad the heart of man. |
| Good art however ''immoral'' is wholly a thing of virtue. Good art can NOT be immoral. By good art I mean art that bears true witness, I mean the art that is most precise. |

| If a man isn't willing to take some risk for his opinions, either his opinions are no good or he's no good |
| If a nation's literature declines, the nation atrophies and decays. |
