  11. "...  they react automatically."   p1244

  12. "...Style represents a promise in every work of art. ...that it will create truth by lending new shape to the conventional social forms... [this promise] is as necessary as it is hypocritical"  Horkheimer and Adorno, p1245

  13. "Instead of exposing itself to this failure in which the style of the great work of art has always achieved self-negation, the inferior work has always relied on its similarity with others - on a surrogate identity. " Horkheimer and Adorno, p1245
