"Les plus belles œuvres d'art sont précieuses, entre autres raisons, parce qu'elles nous permettent de savoir, ne serait-ce qu'imparfaitement et pendant quelques instants, ce que cela fait réellement de penser avec subtilité et de ressentir noblement. Dans "
— 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.
