Leonard Cohen, introducing one of his own songs at the last concert I saw:
"I'm not sure what the revolution is about these days, but I still think
it's a good idea...."
...or was that a 'revelation', Mad/Ben?
It seems to me that debating the ratio of artists to saints isn't all that
far from counting the angels on the head of a pin. Pinch me, but I'd
thought the Englightenment (lovely name for an epoque!) washed all that sort
of slime away.
Mock on, Mock on, Voltaire, Rousseau.
Mock on, Mock on, 'tis all in vain.
You throw the sand against the wind,
And the wind blows it back again....
--St. Blake
And frankly, after you mentioned St. Wolfgang, Scottie, I got even more
confused about the distinction between saints and artists.
I think this is maybe what Mattis was talking about earlier.
Cheers,
Paul
