All that stuff about flatness - it's this idea that painting is a specialized discipline and that modernist painting increasingly refers to painting and is refining the laws of painting. but who cares about painting? what we care about is that the planet is heating up, species are disappearing, there's war, and there are beautiful girls here in brooklyn on the avenue and there's food and flowers.

More From Chris Martin

When modernist poetry, or what not so long ago passed for modernist poetry, can reach the stage where the following piece by mr. ezra pound is seriously offered as a poem, there is some justification for the plain reader and orthodox critic who shrinks from anything that may be labelled 'modernist' either in terms of condemnation or approbation. better he thinks, that ten authentic poets should be left for posterity to discover than one charlatan should be allowed to steal into the temple of fame.

[i]t's an honor to be a food stamp president. food stamps feed the hungry. food stamps save the children. food stamps help the farmer. food stamps help the truck driver. food stamps help the warehouse. food stamps help the store. food stamps hire people and feed people. food stamps save people from starvation and malnutrition. ... give president barack obama a big hand. show your love. show your appreciation.

Laws, it is said, are for the protection of the people. it's unfortunate that there are no statistics on the number of lives that are clobbered yearly as a result of laws: outmoded laws; laws that found their way onto the books as a result of ignorance, hysteria or political haymaking; antilife laws; biased laws; laws that pretend that reality is fixed and nature is definable; laws that deny people the right to refuse protection. a survey such as that could keep a dozen dull sociologists out of mischief for months.

I don't think that you can dispose of the constructive and inventive things that america is doing - and say, "oh we aren't doing anything anymore and we are living off of what the poor chinese do." it is more complicated than that. there is the example of detroit which was once a very prosperous and diverse city. and look what happened when it just specialized on automobiles. look at manchester when it specialized in those dark satanic mills, when it specialized in textiles. it was supposed to be the city of the future.

Laws, in their most general signification, are the necessary relations arising from the nature of things. in this sense all beings have their laws: the deity his laws, the material world its laws, the intelligences superior to man their laws, the beasts their laws, man his laws.
