To be oneself is being neither under bond nor borrowed nor sold nor hired. To be, means to be spiritually free.

The complete and definitive work of art is created beyond one's individuality... ...The universal transcends such a level. Mere spontaneity has never created a work of art which possesses a lasting cultural value. The method leading to universal form is based upon calculations of measure and number.
