When you know these fundamentals you can get an enormously speeded- Continued on page 2
up look at auditing. You've got a chance to look at the fundamentals and
eventually see that you don't need 8,655 superstitions like "I must not stand
under a carob tree because that's what gives women babies" and other "true"
data of the human race. You get down to the bottom of the pile and all
these superstitions become understandable.
What I expect of an auditor is that he audit the pc right there in front of
him, by the most fundamental fundamentals that he can command and
understand. This auditor will always get wins.
Now, these fundamentals must be applied with exactness to small details.
Why?
The common denominator of all great art is a great ability to do a small
detail. You look at the Japanese working with the brush. He paints a
bamboo. He paints it all up, and boy he paints, and when he's all finished
there's a beautiful sketch of a bamboo. So you say, "That's easy," and you
take some charcoal and a big piece of paper and say, "Well . . . let's see
. . . " and you never get anywhere. It looks so easy, but they don't do it
overnight.
Well, the little Japanese knows where to get the inkstone. He knows how
to grind it up. He knows how to mix it. He knows how to handle brushes,
and he could probably write with a brush as fast as you can write with a pen.
All of this great art is built out of a great ability to do a small detail.
That's why the schools of drawing that you see lined up along the board
and fence down in Greenwich Village will never get anywhere. In fifty years
nobody will be able to find those pictures around. One sketch definitely
will not be going for £285.000. More likely you'll find them filling a mouse-
hole somewhere to keep the draft out.
That's because those boys work on an entirely different idea. They see
the ease with which art is done by masters, and mistake the tremendous
skill in the tiny detail. The tiny detail looks easy. It all looks so natural and
easy. They use the same abandon with which the master works to paint their
paintings or sculpt their sculptings, and that's madness. The only thing that's
missing is how do you take a small brush and flip it across a palette to bring
it to a point and paint an absolutely straight line. How do you do that?
I'll give you some idea of this. Michelangelo used to go calling on his
friends, and if they weren't home he'd take a piece of chalk and draw a
perfect freehand circle on the door. They always knew Michelangelo had
been to visit them as he was the only man in all of Italy who could draw a
freehand circle that was perfect. This was recognized as a badge.
There's a craftsmanship, a know-how, an exact skill, an exact response in
this. I don't care how great the man's name or how splendid the accomplish-
ment he's trying to accomplish, or how tiny or unimportant the kind of task.
The factor is still there - it's still craftsmanship, and craftsmanship is built
out of tremendous expertness on the tiny detail.
A student of auditing could make himself a checklist of the fundamental
parts of auditing. I'm talking now about the "mixing the pigments" stage of
