Additional quotes by Wyndham Lewis
I am not in agreement with the current belief in a strained 'impersonality' as the secret of artistic success. Nor can I see the sense of pretending — as it must be a pretence, and a thin one, too — that in my account to you of what I have seen I can be impartial and omniscient. That would be in the nature of a bluff or a blasphemy. There can only be one judge and I am not he.<p>I am not a judge but a party. All I can claim is that my cause is not an idle one — that I appeal less to passion than to reason.
