Beauty is something wonderful and strange
that the artist fashions out of the chaos of the world
in the torment of his soul. And when he has made it,
it is not given to all to know it. To recognize it you must
repeat the adventure of the artist. It is a melody that he sings to you,
and to hear it again in your own heart you want knowledge
and sensitiveness and imagination.
– W. Somerset Maugham
