If he can think, he will probably think differently. If he cannot think, it is monstrous to require thought of any kind from him.

By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.

The fact is, the public make use of the classics of a country as a means of checking the progress of Art. They degrade the classics into authorities. They use them as bludgeons for preventing the free expression of Beauty in new forms.
