There was a fine outburst of laughter, but as the justice was caught out himself, his reprimand was not very vigorous. Mr. Allen jumped up and exclaimed: "I protest against these foolish irrelevancies. What have they to do with the case?" Wilson said: "Calm yourself, brother, it was only an experiment. Now, Mr. Doesn't it seem so to you?" "Certainly it does. It's perfectly plain."
Already I have suggested two characteristics of the movement; I have said that in their choice of forms and colours most vital contemporary artists are, more or less, influenced by Cézanne, and that Cézanne has inspired them with the resolution to free their art from literary and scientific irrelevancies. Most people, asked to mention a third, would promptly answer, I suspect Simplification.
In returning he had stepped on to the springe of a snare. She hurried back to her kitchen for the automatic. She hadn't the least idea how to manipulate it; but she was no longer afraid of it. Bravely she stepped out on to the fire escape. To reach her objective she had to walk under the ladder. Danger often puts odd irrelevancies into the human brain.
She was too impenetrably healthy to be touched by the irrelevancies of disease. Her self-reproachful tenderness was tinged with the sense of his irrationality: she had a vague feeling that there was a purpose in his helpless tyrannies. The suddenness of the change had found her so unprepared.
But Fulke would not let him be; but pressed on a question about the Council of Nice. "Now we shall have the matter of images," sighed Campion. "You are nimis acutus," retorted Fulke, "you will leap over the stile or ever you come to it. I mean not to speak of images." And so with a few more irrelevancies the debate ended.
To us it seemed, in those days, that a mass of scientific irrelevancies and intellectual complications had come between the artist and his vision, and, again, between the vision and its expression.
Two years later came another book of tremendous and irregular power "The Idiot." With the exception of "The Karamazov Brothers," this is the most peculiarly characteristic of all Dostoevski's works. It is almost insufferably long; it reads as though it had never been revised; it abounds in irrelevancies and superfluous characters.
The latent content of all languages is the same the intuitive science of experience. It is the manifest form that is never twice the same, for this form, which we call linguistic morphology, is nothing more nor less than a collective art of thought, an art denuded of the irrelevancies of individual sentiment.
The talk at a dinner given by the Easy Chair to some of its most valued friends was of the life after death, and it will not surprise any experienced observer to learn that the talk went on amid much unserious chatter, with laughing irrelevancies more appropriate to the pouring of champagne, and the changing of plates, than to the very solemn affair in hand.
"Still," insisted Richard, endeavouring in spite of these irrelevancies to make good his point, "there be many men who drink daily to the prosperity of the late King's natural son." "Aye, sir," answered Albemarle; "but not his prosperity in horrid plots against the life of our beloved sovereign." "True, Your Grace; very true," purred Sir Edward. "It was not so I meant to toast him," cried Richard.
