Kakuzō Okakura
“Art, to be fully appreciated, must be true to contemporaneous life. It is not that we should ignore the claims of posterity, but that we should seek to enjoy the present more. It is not that we should disregard the creations of the past, but that we should try to assimilate them into our consciousness.”
Kakuzō Okakura, The Book of Tea

Kakuzō Okakura
“It has been said that man at ten is an animal, at twenty a lunatic, at thirty a failure, at forty a fraud, and at fifty a criminal.”
Okakura Kakuzo 1862-1913, The Book of Tea

Kakuzō Okakura
“In religion the Future is behind us. In art the Present is the eternal.”
Okakura Kakuzō, The Book of Tea

Kakuzō Okakura
“Perhaps we reveal ourselves too much in small things because we have so little of the great to conceal. The tiny incidents of daily routine are as much a commentary of racial ideals as the highest flight of philosophy or poetry.”
Kakuzō Okakura, The Book of Tea
