    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “The essence of morality is a questioning about morality; and the decisive move of human life is to use ceaselessly all light to look for the origin of the opposition between good and evil.”
    —Georges Bataille (1897–1962)

    “Art is good when it springs from necessity. This kind of origin is the guarantee of its value; there is no other.”
