If a patron buys from an artist who needs money, the patron then makes himself equal to the artist; he is building art into the world; he creates.

Ezra Pound was an influential American poet, critic, and a major figure in the modernist literary movement of the early 20th century. Born on October 30, 1885, he is best known for his contributions to poetry, particularly through his works such as "The Cantos" and for his role in promoting Imagism, a movement that emphasized clarity and precision in imagery. Pound's complex legacy includes his controversial political views and his support for fascism during World War II, leading to his arrest and subsequent insanity trial.
