Text of the day: “Here are some questions I set myself: Is a chair finely made tragic or comic? Is the portrait of the Mona Lisa good if I desire to see it? Is the bust of Sir Philip Crampton lyrical, epical or dramatic? Can excrement or a child or a louse be a work of art? If not, why not?” (James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man)
