The starting-point for all systems of aesthetics must be the personal experience of a peculiar emotion. The objects that provoke this emotion we call works of art (Clive Bell Quotes)
We all agree now - by ‘we’ I mean intelligent people under sixty - that a work of art is like a rose. A rose is not beautiful because it is like something else. Neither is a work of art. Roses and works of art are beautiful in themselves (Clive Bell Quotes)

The forms of art are inexhaustible; but all lead by the same road of aesthetic emotion to the same world of aesthetic ecstasy (Clive Bell Quotes)
Civilized people can talk about anything. For them no subject is taboo... In civilized societies there will be no intellectual bogeys at sight of which great grownup babies are expected to hide their eyes (Clive Bell Quotes)
Only reason can convince us of those three fundamental truths without a recognition of which there can be no effective liberty: that what we believe is not necessarily true; that what we like is not necessarily good; and that all questions are open (Clive Bell Quotes)
I will try to account for the degree of my aesthetic emotion. That, I conceive, is the function of the critic (Clive Bell Quotes)
A rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind (Clive Bell Quotes)
