Oscar Wilde Quotes

And Health In Art - What Is That? It Has Nothing To Do With A Sane Criticism Of Life. There Is More Health In Baudelaire Than There Is In [Kingsley]. Health Is The Artist's Recognition Of The Limitations Of The Form In Which He Works. It Is The Honour And The Homage Which He Gives To The Material He Uses - Whether It Be Language With Its Glories, Or Marble Or Pigment With Their Glories - Knowing That The True Brotherhood Of The Arts Consists Not In Their Borrowing One Another's Method, But In Their Producing, Each Of Them By Its Own Individual Means, Each Of Them By Keeping Its Objective Limits, The Same Unique Artistic Delight. The Delight Is Like That Given To Us By Music - For Music Is The Art In Which Form And Matter Are Always One, The Art Whose Subject Cannot Be Separated From The Method Of Its Expression, The Art Which Most Completely Realises The Artistic Ideal, And Is The Condition To Which All The Other Arts Are Constantly Aspiring.
