Art can make the old surprising, and the new and sudden soothing.
All beauty is a making one of opposites, and the making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves.
If a mistake is not a stepping stone, it is a mistake.
The world, art, and self explain each other: each is the aesthetic oneness of opposites.
Art is a way of showing greater fairness to things than is customary.
There is not one thing that music does which does not say something about how a person should organize himself, too.
