Quotes

• “America is 100% 18th Century. The 18th century had chucked out the principle of metaphor and analogy — the basic fact that as A is to B so is C to D. AB:CD. It can see AB relations. But relations in four terms are still verboten. This amounts to deep occultation of nearly all human thought for the USA.”
• “Poetry and the arts can’t exist in America. Mere exposure to the arts does nothing for a mentality which is incorrigibly dialectical. The vital tensions and nutritive action of ideogram remain inaccessible to this state of mind.”
• “There is a real, living unity in our time, as in any other, but it lies submerged under a superficial hubbub of sensation.”
• “Ads represent the main channel of intellectual and artistic effort in the modern world.”
• “Human perception is literally incarnation.”
