Summary

This quote highlights the importance of integrating art into various aspects of life, rather than isolating it in its own little space. By setting art "off in a corner," it suggests that it loses the qualities that make it powerful and meaningful - vitality, reality, and substance. Art thrives when it is embraced and incorporated into the fabric of society, engaging with culture, emotions, and human experiences. This quote serves as a reminder that art should be actively recognized and promoted, rather than being relegated to the sidelines, in order to fully appreciate its impact and significance.
