Innovation

"From the very nature of progress, all ages must be transitional. If they were not, the world would be at a stand-sill and death would speedily ensure." (Form and Intelligibility from the Radcliffe Manuscripts, 1949 posthumous)

"The creator of the new composition in the arts is an outlaw until he is a classic." (Composition as Explanation, 1926)

"For a very long time everybody refuses and then almost without a pause almost everybody accepts. In the history of the history of the refused in the arts and literature the rapidity of the change is always startling." (Composition as Explanation, 1926)
