Quote by Roy Lichtenstein

I like to pretend that my art has nothing to do with me.

I like to pretend that my art has nothing to do with me.

Summary

This quote suggests the desire of the artist to detach themselves from their art, distancing their personal identity from their creative output. By assuming this perspective, the artist might aim to explore their art objectively and independently of their own experiences or emotions. This detachment may provide them with the freedom to experiment, explore new ideas, and allow the audience to interpret their art without biases. By disregarding their personal connection to the artwork, the artist creates a space where the focus is solely on the creation itself, allowing for a fresh and open interpretation.

The orthodox school has witnessed for centuries that nature

The orthodox school has witnessed for centuries that nature itself has never once cured any existing disease with another dissimilar one, however intense. What must we think of this school, which nevertheless has continued to treat chronic diseases allopathically, with medicines and formulas that can only cause a disease condition --God knows which --dissimilar to the one being treated? Even if these physicians have not hitherto observed nature attentively enough, the miserable results of their treatment should have taught them that they were on the wrong road.

I will not adopt that ungenerous and impolitic custom so common with novel writers, of degrading by their contemptuous censure the very performances, to the number of which they are themselves addingÂ—joining with their greatest enemies in bestowing the harshest epithets on such works, and scarcely ever permitting them to be read by their own heroine, who, if she accidentally take up a novel, is sure to turn over its insipid leaves with disgust.
