<b>The Holy Egoism Of Genius</b> by <i>Art Of Noise</i><br />Debussy didn't believe in god. He didn't believe in the Establishment. He

Didn't believe in bourgeois convention. He didn't believe in Beethoven or

Wagner. He believed in... Debussy.

Debussy understood that a work of art, or an effort to create beauty, was

Always regarded by some people as a personal attack.

He hated to appear in public. Hated to conduct. Hated to play the piano at

Concerts. He preferred cats to people.

No one was ever sure whether the spites with which Debussy armed his

Volatile senibilities were activated by a savage insensitivity, or by the

Holy egoism of genius.
