"The one characteristic of a beautiful form is that one can put into it whatever one wishes, and see in it whatever one wishes to see; and the Beauty, that gives to creation its universal and aesthetic element, makes the critic a creator in his turn, and whispers of a thousand different things which were not present in the mind of him who carved the statue or painted the panel or graved the gem." - Oscar Wilde, "The Critic as Artist"
