Anyone who has looked deeply into the world will probably guess the
wisdom that lies in human superficiality. An instinct of preservation has
taught people to be flighty, light, and false. We occasionally find both
philosophers and artists engaging in a passionate and exaggeratedworship
of “pure forms.” Let there be no doubt that anyone who needs the cult
of the surface this badly has at some point reached beneath the surface
with disastrous results. Perhaps there is even an order of rank for these
wounded children, the born artists, who find pleasure in life only by
intending to falsify its image, in a sort of prolonged revenge against life –.
We can infer the degree to which life has been spoiled for them from
the extent to which they want to see its image distorted, diluted, deified,
and cast into the beyond – considered as artists, the homines religiosi
would belong to the highest rank.
