Clive Bell
Jacques Derrida
"We have no there means of recognising a work of art than our feeling for it."
"The first problem of the media is posed by what does not get translated, or even published in the dominant politcal languages."
David Hume
"a thousand different sentiments, excited by the same object, are all right: Because no sentiment represents what is really in the object. It only marks a certain conformity or relation between the object and the organs or faculties of the mind; and if that conformity did not really exist, the sentiment could never possibly have being. Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty."
