Kenneth Yasuda Quotes

This Book By Dr. Yasuda, While Ostensibly About Haiku, In Reality Penetrates Deeply Into The Totality Of This Living Spirit Of Japan. It Deals With Those Aspects Which Have Produced And Maintained Haiku Into The Present Day. The Important Key To Understanding Comes With The Realization That In Japanese Art One Strives Always For The Absolute. Of The Absolute There Is No Question Of Degree; It Is Either Attained Or Lost. Most Often, To Be Sure, It Is Not Attained, But It Is The Constant Striving Toward And Awareness Of That High Goal Which Gives Strength And Vitality To This Living Aesthetic Spirit Which Has So Impressed Me In Japan.

(Robert B. Hall, Foreword, P. X)
