"Art is a jealous mistress, and, if a man have a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture or philosophy, he makes a bad husband and an ill provider."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson, Art

In Art (1841) Emerson discusses the dual role of art in the human experience, providing opportunities for every individual to express themselves and giving all who choose it a medium to speak to everyone. In his essay, he also expresses an admiration for the universal nature of the experiences art offers.
