“It hardly to be pointed out that the great museums of the world are mausoleums, dusty sepulchers filled with musty, pompous totems of snooty 'ideas' and pathetic 'feelings'. Contemporary galleries are no better, serving as secularized temples for the effete and cowardly shallow, displaying the meaningless excreta of the terminally vain, all in all a bleak, status-shellacked landscape charted by impotent right-brained Critics who justify their inane observations by intellectual vivisection - intelligent, yes, but...
Face it. 'Good' and 'Bad' are interchangeable values, maleable and totally relative conceits, and as such, have NO meaning at all.
'FINE ART's' been dead since about 1923. Dada gangbangers, responding to the nihilistic and bloody politics of World War I, brutally dispatched it during their short-lived but merciless rebellion against Western Culture. Unfortunately, these dilettante assassins forgot to deliver the coup de grace to the body, neglecting in their self-congratulatory fervor of the moment to drive a stake through FINE ART's heart, cut off his head and burn the whole mess to ashes. As a result, not only were their tools of deCon-destruction transformed into tangible and valuable commodity fetishes, they inadvertentely bequeathed the future a situation far worse that that which they had originally contended."

“There is no intrinsic difference between 'failed' works (i.e. those that remain unsold because their makers are unable to persuaded a gallery to promote them in the market) and those which become art upon the realisation of a exchage value.
But what if the work with wich an 'artist' and an audience are engaged does nothing for the economy? Such work does not feature under the umbrella of 'the Arts', it is necessarily dismissed - as amateur, as avant-garde, as 'not art', and so forth."

“It is to be remembered that all art is magical in origin - music, sculpture, writing, painting - and by magical I mean intended to produce very definite results. Paintings were originally formulae to make what is painted happen. Art is not an end in itself, any more than Einstein's matter-into-energy formulae is an end in itself. Like all formulae, art was originally FUNCTIONAL, intended to make things happen, the way an atom bomb happens from Einstein's formulae.”

“The symbol of the Eye in the Pyramid, which appears on the back of the Great Seal of the United States, is said by some to be the symbol of the Illuminati, who are believed by others to be the secret masters of the world. But the real secret masters of the world are the ones who keep the truth hidden from us, whoever they are.”
“There are periods of history when the visions of madmen and dope fiends are a better guide to reality than the common-sense interpretation of data available to the so-called normal mind. This is one such period, if you haven't noticed already.”
“The Illuminati are everywhere and nowhere. They are the unseen hand that guides the course of history, or maybe they're just a bunch of old guys sitting around in a room, smoking cigars and laughing at us.”
“Perhaps the final secret of the Illuminati is that you don’t know you’re a member until it’s too late to get out.”
