How can a person rise to the production of a work of art when he regards his own organism as an artistic instrument! But all that is intended by this is only just beginning. And as much as we are convinced that this beginning will experience a significant perfection more and more, we are still the strictest judges today and know that we are at the very beginning. And so I would ask you to be indulgent in your judgment of what we are able to present to you today, even though we are convinced that eurythmy, once it has been perfected by us or by others, will be able to stand as a fully-fledged art form alongside other, older art forms.
