"Whoever, in art, does not innovate, is an epigon. The artist's right and duty is to be himself, vis-a-vis the scientist who has the duty to be first what his predecessors were and the right only to extend the range of their science.

Whoever, in art, does not innovate, is an epigon. The artist's right and duty is to be himself, vis-a-vis the scientist who has the duty to be first what his predecessors were and the right only to extend the range of their science.
"Romanian
"Cine, în artă, nu inovează, este un epigon. Dreptul și datoria artistului este de a fi el însuși, față de omul de știință care are datoria de a fi mai întâi ceea ce au fost înaintașii lui și dreptul numai de a lungi raza științei acestora."
