'Like mathematics, the principles of aesthetics involve the abstract formal properties of things and applies to everything - to apples, and to oranges, to ideas and to things - regardless of one's feelings, opinions, or emotions.
'.. it is well to remember that "a great poet or painter may hold the wrong theory, an array of conflicting theories, or no theory at all. Who cares? The work is the thing.'
'I believe what determines the status of art is not genre, but quality.'
- Paul Rand
