I hope it's okay to put some quotes by Emerson. I believe his works are art in themselves. I love him! I'm reading right now "The Select Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson" The Selected Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson
Anyway, now that I've introduced that, I want to add a quote. It may be the first of many, I don't know.
"All men are in some degree impressed by the face of the world; same men even to delight. This love of beauty is Taste. Others have the same love in such excess, that, not content with admiring, they seek to embody it in new forms. The creation of beauty is Art"
