"إن أروع الأعمال الفنية ثمينة لأسباب عديدة من بينها أنها تجعل من الممكن لنا أن نعرف ولو بشكل غير كامل وللحظات قليلة كيف يكون الشعور بالتفكير الدقيق والإحساس النبيل. في سكر الحياة العصرية تخلت الفنون عن جميع هذه الصفات الجيدة."
— Aldous Huxley
Simplified Meaning:
Art is valuable because it allows us to experience deeper, more profound thinking and emotions, even if just briefly. Imagine watching a beautiful movie that makes you reflect on your own life or feel strong emotions; that's what art does. It lets us momentarily escape the hustle and bustle of our everyday routines and feel something bigger and more meaningful. For example, reading a powerful novel can make you appreciate bravery or kindness in a new way. In today's world, where things are fast and often shallow, art provides a rare chance to connect with these richer, nobler feelings. This is why incorporating art into our lives, like visiting a museum or listening to moving music, can help us stay in touch with these important aspects of our humanity.
