“The great artists of the world are never Puritans, and seldom even ordinarily respectable.”
H.L. Mencken (1880–1956) American journalist and writer
Source: 1910s, Prejudices, First Series (1919), Ch. 16
Context: The great artists of the world are never Puritans, and seldom even ordinarily respectable. No virtuous man — that is, virtuous in the Y. M. C. A. sense — has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading.
