Quote by Lukas Foss
That is why the analogy of stealing does not work. With a thief, we want to know how much money he stole, and from whom. With the artist it is not how much he took and from whom, but what he did with it.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the difference between a thief and an artist. While the act of stealing focuses on the quantity stolen and who the victims are, when it comes to the artist, such concerns are irrelevant. Instead, the key factor that matters is what the artist creates or produces with their resources. This quote challenges the notion of viewing the artist's actions through the lens of theft, highlighting the importance of their creative output and the impact it has on the world.
