"A creative work of art is, by its very novelty,aggressive; spontaneously aggressive, it
strikes out at the public, against the majority;
it arouses indignation by its non-conformity,
which is, in itself, a form of vindication."

Tuesday's Great Thought
The Romanian-born French writer Eugene Ionesco might've had National Lampoon's Animal House in mind (or something much like it) when he said the following:
"A creative work of art is, by its very novelty,
aggressive; spontaneously aggressive, it
strikes out at the public, against the majority;
it arouses indignation by its non-conformity,
which is, in itself, a form of vindication."
"A creative work of art is, by its very novelty,aggressive; spontaneously aggressive, it
strikes out at the public, against the majority;
it arouses indignation by its non-conformity,
which is, in itself, a form of vindication."
