book of aphorisms by a Pakistani lawyer

Art

      1. A great artist overwhelms life.
      2. Science desecrates nature, art consecrates it.
      3. Art articulates the enigma oflife.
      4. In expressing the intensity of emotion, art reveals its own exposition of truth.
      5. Writing is an art in which you know what not to say explicitly for impact.
      6. Simple writing is simply difficult.
      7. The art of flattery is knowing how much is not too much praise to avoid the odium of ridicule.
      8. The art of coquetry is knowing how far is not too far in flirtation.
      9. Excellence of the human spirit is expressed in the delicate and soul-stirring songs, music, sculpture and dances taken to the pinnacle of art forms in Hindu religion, which is unique, among world religions, in celebrating life by identifying art with worship.
      10. Art of imitation of nature is implicit in human expression in various primitive arts. Muslim culture is devoid of it. Architecture and calligraphy are later developments of an agricultural society, which already knew the craft and skill of building and writing. Reason, perhaps, is that the Muslim culture began with tribal desert and barren people and spread in mountainous regions of Asia, where there was no benign nature to imitate and nothing to inspire tenderness in wilderness.
      11. A scientist sees things as they are and an artist sees things, as he wants them to be.
      12. Skill in art precedes talent in art.
      13. A true artist creates art for himc;;elf and incidentally for the world.
