Emmanuel Lipkind:
"Vivid, exalted apprehension is opposed to mechanistic one. Quest equips an Artist with the experience and freedom in his/her striving for the comprehension of this fantastic and inconceivable world, which surrounds us. Here, in the Land of Israel, one begins to realize the depth and magnitude of eternal human values and ideals."
