Scientists do stand on the shoulders of giants, just as do writers. Conversely, in the arts we do make discoveries. We do refine our tools. So I am arguing with, or at least playing with, the idea that art never improves.

  • -- Ian McEwan 伊恩·麦克尤恩

科学家确实站在巨人的肩膀上，就像作家一样。相反，在艺术方面，我们确实有所发现。我们确实在改进我们的工具。所以我反对，或者至少是玩弄，艺术永远不会进步的观点。
