一。给阿廖沙或梅什金公爵
-- Beauty,you mean your spiritual conception of beauty?
-- But do you deny the ability of the artist to create from the spirit?
-- That is precisely what i deny
-- So then ,.according to you ,our labor as artists ......
-- Labor,exactly.
-- Do you really believe in beauty as the product of labor?
-- Yes ,i do
-- That's how beauty is born .like that ,spontaneously.In utter disregard for your labor and mine .it's pre-exists our presumption as artists
-- You great error ,my dear friend,is to consider life ,reality as a limitation.
-- But isn't that what it is?
reality only distracts and degrades us .
you know,sometimes ,i think that artists are rather like hunters aiming inthe dark.they don't konw what their target is ,and they don't know if they've hit it .But you can't expect life to illuminate to target and steady your aim.
the creation of beauty and purity is a spiritual act.
-- Beauty belongs to senses. only the senses.
-- You cannot reach the spirit.you cannot reach the spirit through the senses .you cannot...
it's only by complete domination of the senses.... that you can ever achieve wisdom,truth and human dignity .
-- Wisdom,human dignity? what use are they?
genius is a divine gift .no a divine affliction.a sinful,morbid flash fire of nature gifts.
-- I reject the demonic virtues of art
-- And you are wrong! evil is necessity . it is the food of genius.
