PENALTY OF
LEADERSHIP
I
N every field of human endeavor, he that is first must perpetually live
in the white light of publicity. VWhether the leadership be vested
in a man or in
a manufactured product, emulation and envy are ever at
work. TIn art. in literature, in music, in industry,
the reward and the
punishment are always the same. VThe reward is widespread recog-
nition;
the punishment, fierce denial and detraction. TWhen a man's
work becomes a standard
for the whole world, it also becomes a target
for the shafts of the envious few. BIf his work be merely mediocre,
he
will be left severely alone - if he achieve a masterpiece, it will set a million
tongues a-wagging. vealousy does not protrude its forked tongue at
the artist who produces a commonplace painting. VWhatsoever you
write, or paint,
or play, or sing, or build, no one will strive to surpass, or
to slander you, unless your work be stamped with the seal of genius.
lbng, long after a great work or a
good work has been done, those who
are disappointed or envious continue to cry out that it can not be done.
ISpiteful
little voices in the domain of art were raised against our own
Whistler as a mountebank, long after the big world had acclaimed him
its greatest artistic genius. fMultitudes flocked to Bayreuth
to worship
at the musical shrine of Wagner, while the little group of those whom he
had dethroned and displaced argued angrily that he was no musician at
all.
TThe little world continued to protest that hlton could never
build
a steamboat, while the big world flocked to the river banks to see
his boat steam by. YThe leader is assailed because he
is a leader, and
the effort to equal him
is merely added proof of that leadership. qFailing
to equal
or to excel, the follower seeks to depreciate and to destroy - but
only confirms once more the superiority of that which
he strives to
supplant. (There is nothing new
in this. (It is as old as the world
and as old
as the human passions - envy, fear, greed, ambition, and the
desire to surpass. IAnd it all avails nothing. BIf the leader truly
leads, he remains -the leader. TIMaster-poet, masterpainter, master
workman, each in his turn is assailed, and each holds his laurels through
the ages. ?That which
is goad or great makes itself known, no matter
how loud the clamor of denial. TThat which deserves to live- lives.
