"Ours is indeed a culture that tends to assign value to a woman based on her sex appeal rather than her character, and that’s something we must work to change."

Art is universal. It unites mankind in common brotherhood.  As a missionary of civilization, its message is both to heart and mind.  Distinctions of tongue or boundary lines disappear before the power of truths, which, like the rainbow, charm by the beauty of variegated hues, or, combined with light, illuminate the universe.  Moreover, art is the connecting link in the chain of great minds.  Through its language, thought appeals to thought, and sympathy echoes feeling.
