Beauty is desired in order that it may be befouled; not for its own sake, but for the joy brought by the certainty of profaning it.
“Science, the agile ape, may well Up in his tree thus grin and grind his teeth At us beneath, The wearers of the bay and asphodel, Laughing to be his butts, And gathering up for use his ill-aim’d cocoa-nuts.”
