1 " If we are in a general way permitted to regard human activity in the realm of the beautiful as a liberation of the soul, as a release from constraint and restriction, in short to consider that art does actually alleviate the most overpowering and tragic catastrophes by means of the creations it offers to our contemplation and enjoyment, it is the art of music which conducts us to the final summit of that ascent to freedom. "
― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel , On the Arts: Selections from G.W.F. Hegel's Aesthetics or the Philosophy of Fine Art
