我不相信人们的生活可以成为满足艺术家自我表现的愿望的手段。相反,是每一个人,如果他愿意,必须有权利塑造他自己的生活,只要不过份于干涉别人。我也非常同情审美的冲动,但我认为,艺术家可以在别的事情上来寻求表现,我要求政治必须坚持平等主义和个人主义的原则,美的梦想必须从属于援助在苦难中和受到不公正待遇的人这个必要性,从属于为这些目的而设立各种建构的必要性。……唯美主义观念认为社会象艺术作品那样应该是美丽的这个看法,极其容易导致暴力措施。——波普尔 I do not believe that people’s lives can be a means of satisfying the artists’ desire to express themselves. On the contrary, everyone, if he wants, must have the power to shape his own life, as long as it does not interfere in others. I also deeply sympathize with the aesthetic impulse. However, I think that artists can seek performance on other issues. I demand that politics must uphold the principle of egalitarianism and individualism. The dream of beauty must be subordinated to aid in suffering and unfair treatment. The necessity of man is subordinate to the necessity of establishing various constructions for these purposes. ... The aestheticist view that society should be beautiful as a work of art is extremely apt to lead to violent measures. Popper
