All art is propaganda. . . . The only difference is the kind of propaganda. Since art is essential for human life, it can't just belong to the few. Art is the universal language, and it belongs to all mankind. All painters have been propagandists or else they have not been painters. . . . Every artist who has been worth anything in art has been such a propagandist. . . . Every strong artist has been a propagandist. I want to be a propagandist and I want to be nothing else. . . . I want to use my art as a weapon.
