13. The Futurist Manifesto (1909) (excerpt) “We want to sing the love of danger, the habit of danger and of temerity.” “The essential elements of our poetry will be courage, daring, and revolt.” “ We declare that the world's wonder has been enriched by a fresh beauty: the beauty of speed. A racing car with its trunk adorned by great exhaust pipes like snakes with an explosive breath... a roaring car that seems to be driving under shrapnel, is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace.” “ We stand on the far promontory of centuries!... What is the use of looking behind us, since our task is to smash the mysterious portals of the impossible? Time and Space died yesterday. We live already in the absolute, since we have already created the eternal omnipresent speed. “ We want to glorify war -- the only hygiene of the world --militarism, patriotism, the anarchist's destructive gesture, the fine Ideas that kill, and the scorn of woman.” “We want to demolish museums, libraries, fight against moralism, feminism, and all opportunistic and utilitarian cowardices.”

22. Vorticist Manifesto (1914) 1. Beyond Action and Reaction we would establish ourselves. 2. We start from opposite statements of a chosen world. Set up violent structure of adolescent clearness between two extremes. 3. We discharge ourselves on both sides. 4. We fight first on one side, then on the other, but always for the SAME cause, which is neither side or both sides and ours. 5. Mercenaries were always the best troops. 6. We are primitive Mercenaries in the Modern World. 7. Our Cause is NO-MAN'S. 8. We set Humour at Humour's throat. Stir up Civil War among peaceful apes. 9. We only want Humour if it has fought like Tragedy. 10. We only want Tragedy if it can clench its side-muscles like hands on its belly, and bring to the surface a laugh like a bomb.
