Somerset Maugham, b otd 1874: The artist produces for the liberation of his soul. The essence of the beautiful is unity in variety. Tradition is a guide and not a jailer. People ask for criticism, but they only want praise. The writer is more concerned to know than to judge.
Replying to @StevenIsserlis
"It is a very great nuisance that knowledge may only be obtained by hard work." ~ W S Maugham
