The only important elements in any society are the artistic and the criminal, because they alone, by questioning the society’s values, can force it to change.

“It is important that our creation … mirror the puzzles with which we are surrounded, so that our soul may endeavor — not to solve them — but to decipher them… for the puzzles are an image of the ungraspable. An imperfect, that is, a human image. But if we can only learn from them to consider the ungraspable as possible, we get nearer to God, because we no longer demand to understand him.”
Arnold Schoenberg
