Moral Ideas

Famous quotes containing the words moral and/or ideas:

    I never meant to deny the moral impact of art which is certainly inherent in every genuine work of art. What I do deny and am prepared to fight to the last drop of my ink is the deliberate moralizing which to me kills every vestige of art in a work however skillfully written.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    The whole bloody system is sick: the very notion of leadership, a balloon with a face painted upon it, elected and inflated by media’s diabolic need to reduce ideas to personalities.
    Kate Millett (b. 1934)
