The World Of The Arts Is By No Means Always Comfortable, But Neither Is It Likely Ever To Be Boring. It Is Full Of Surprises, Humor, Traps For The Unwary, And Challenges To Smugness. It Is A World Of Moods As Well As Of Revelation, Of Beliefs And Fears, Of Unpleasant Truth As Well As Of Delicious Fantasy. Perhaps It Is Arrogant To Say That Anyone Who Does Not Venture Into This World Is Only Half-interested In Life. I Say It, Nonetheless.
