“…Matthew Arnold (1822-1888) believed that each of the arts had inevitable periods of growth, excellence, decline, and torpidity, and that if you found yourself an artist in the wrong age, there was just nothing you could do about it. “The exercise of the creative power in the production of great works of literature or art,” he wrote in “The Function of Criticism at the Present Time,” “is not at all epochs and under all conditions possible;… therefore labor may be vainly spent in attempting it, which might with more fruit be used in preparing for it, in rendering it possible…. [F]or the creation of a master-work of literature two powers must concur, the power of the man and the power of the moment; and the man is not enough without the moment.”” Kyle Gann, Man Plus Moment (2003). In short..aadmi bada nahi hota. time bada hota hai. sahi waqt par aur sahi jahah par sahi kaam karna zarori hai.
