"The most intelligent inspection of any number of fine paintings will not make the observer a painter, nor will listening to a number of operas make the hearer a musician, but good judges of music and painting may so be formed. Chess differs from these. The intelligent perusal of fine games cannot fail to make the reader a better player and a better judge of the play of others."

-- Emanuel Lasker

So it's a blend of kind of a sensual response to material and an intellectual response to idea, maybe a blend of the two.”
“Philosophy means the complete liberty of the mind.”
“What quality is shared by all objects that provoke our aesthetic emotions? Only one answer seems possibleâ€” significant form. In each, lines and colors combined in a particular way; certain forms and relations of forms, stir our aesthetic emotions. These relations and combinations of lines and colors, these aesthetically moving forms, I call â€˜Significant Formâ€™; and â€˜Significant Formâ€™ is the one quality common to all works of visual art.”
