" Art must be defended and pursued and relished not for any political program it might be thought to serve but for what it is, in and of itself, as a mode of knowledge, as a source of spriritual and intellectual enlightenment, as a special form of pleasure and moral elevation, and as a spur to the highest reaches of human aspiration. The defense of art must be not be looked upon a luxury of civilization - to be indulged in and supported when all else is serene and unchallenged - but as the very essence of our civilization."
