An Absolute Can Only Be Given In An Intuition, While All The Rest Has To Do With Analysis. We Call Intuition Here The Sympathy By Which One Is Transported Into The Interior Of An Object In Order To Coincide With What There Is Unique Andconsequently Inexpressible In It. Analysis, On The Contrary, Is The Operation Which Reduces The Object To Elements Already Known.

Art Has No Other Object Than To Set Aside The Symbols Of Practical Utility, The Generalities That Are Conventionally And Socially Accepted, Everything In Fact Which Masks Reality From Us, In Order To Set Us Face To Face With Reality Itself.

A Situation Is Always Comic If It Participates Simultaneously In Two Series Of Events Which Are Absolutely Independent Of Each Other, And If It Can Be Interpreted In Two Quite Different Meanings.

Some Other Faculty Than The Intellect Is Necessary For The Apprehension Of Reality.

To Drive Out The Darkness, Bring In The Light.
