the difference between entertainment and art is that art is never in the service of society --- it is never limited by the bounds of it, nor is it friendly with it; art does not cater to the needs of the society from which it sprang, and it does not watch and guard over society when it is lulling its cute beauty sleep; art and society is not tied together in mutually assured ethos; it does not carry out its stinky moral propaganda... art should not condemn public enemies but condemn enemies of art: art is a spectre looming hauntingly through corridors of entertainment, for it is a ghost of entertainment... for example: entertainment makes its concession: we want to entertain... and what type of concession does art make for itself... we want to express ourselves.... sometimes in cocoons of solitude and emotion.... sometimes at the peril of the world...
