More From James Joyce

Class warfare always sounds good. taking action against the rich and the powerful and making 'em pay for what they do, it always sounds good. but that's not the job of the supreme court. the supreme court standing on the side of the american people? the supreme court adjudicates the law. the supreme court determines the constitutionality of things and other things. the supreme court's gotten way out of focus, in my opinion.
Powerful People Focus
The notion that the supreme court comes up with the ruling and that automatically subjects the two other branches to following it defies everything there is about the three equal branches of government. the supreme court is not the supreme branch. and for god's sake, it isn't the supreme being. it is the supreme court.
Government Two Three
The supreme question about a work of art is out of how deep a life does it spring. paintings of moreau are paintings of ideas. the deepest poetry of shelley, the words of hamlet bring our mind into contact with the eternal wisdom; plato's world of ideas. all the rest is the speculation of schoolboys for schoolboys.
Art Plato Spring
Character is supreme in life, hence jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing - so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of jesus christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code but a character.
Jesus Character Thinking
It is neither art for art, nor art against art. i am for art, but for art that has nothing to do with art. art has everything to do with life, but it has nothing to do with art.
Art
So spring comes merry towards me here, but earns no answering smile from me, whose life is twin'd with the dead boughs that winter still must bind, and whom today the spring no more concerns. behold, this crocus is a withering flame; this snowdrop, snow; this apple-blossom's part to breed the fruit that breeds the serpent's art. nay, for these spring-flowers, turn thy face from them, nor stay till on the year's last lily-stem the white cup shrivels round the golden heart.

If there be a love pure and free from the admixture of our other passions, it is that which lies hidden in the bottom of our heart, and which we know not ourselves.
