It is unhappily true that much insincere Literature and Art, executed solely with a view to effect, does succeed by deceiving the public.
Ideas are forces; our acceptance of one determines our reception of others.
Science is the systematic classification of experience.
Literature is at once the cause and the effect of social progress.
Science is not addressed to poets.
Language, after all, is only the use of symbols, and Art also can only affect us through symbols.
