Art begins where definition stops—thus reason seems unable to analyse it— and yet, art does not exist in its fullness except when it satisfies reason, when it responds to a logic of which we know only the results.
Can we accept, then, that its fundamental law is among those that remain unknown to us, while ruling over life and intelligence, and guiding us in such a way that without knowing anything, without needing to know the causes, we accomplish the effects with the obscure certainty or the clear awareness, according to our moral understanding, of obeying an established order, of continuing the movement that nothing can stop.
