Quote by Leo Tolstoy

Until they throw the money changers out of the temple of art, it will never be a real temple.


Until they throw the money changers out of the temple of art

Summary

This quote suggests that the presence of financial interests and commercialization in the field of art corrupts and undermines its true essence. It highlights the idea that the pursuit of profit and the involvement of individuals focused on monetary gain, like the "money changers," taints the authenticity and purity of art. To create a genuine "temple of art," these financial motivations and influences must be removed to prioritize and foster the true artistic expression and purpose of creation.
