Oscar Wilde quite rightly said, 'All art is useless'. And that may sound as if that means it's something not worth supporting.

It is the extra, without which life is not worth living.

Sometimes, however, they are sober at their first deliberations, but in this case they always reconsider the matter under the influence of wine.
