當社會盛行實用和享樂的風氣，潘登是少有的敢於反潮流的藝術傢，但他開齣的藥方不是迴到古典正宗、迴到常識和理性。他的作品戲謔地描繪瞭世俗風氣：天使、人、動物的敗壞也許不應歸咎於天下太平，而是更應該歸咎於我們內心的無窮無盡的禍亂，尤其是那些今日占據著、蹂躪著我們生活的利欲。因為利欲是我們今日人人都受其害的痼疾，況且奢欲奴役著我們，不妨說，我們陷於深淵之中。如果說愛金錢是一種使人萎靡不振的疾病，愛享樂又是最卑鄙齷齪的。世人再也不嚮上看瞭，在也不關心自己的名譽，生活的墮落在惡性循環逐步完成，人們靈魂中的偉大品質開始衰退，凋零枯槁，他們隻重視必腐必朽的肉體，而不珍惜不配的靈魂的發展。

As the practical and extravagant trend being popular in the community, Pan Deng is one of a few who dares to go against the trend, but his prescription is not the reversion of classic genius, common sense and rationality. His works portray the secular trend jokingly: angels, people, animals, probably not to blame the deterioration of peace and harmony, but it should attribute to the endless disease in our hearts, especially that acquisitiveness has occupied devastated our lives today. Since acquisitiveness is a chronic illness for everyone today, in addition, we were enslaved by the extravagant desire, so to speak, it trapped us in the abyss. Love of money is a disease that makes people stagnant, and love of extravagance is the most despicable and nasty thing. People are no longer following the convention, and nasty thing. People are no longer following the convention, and never concern about their reputation, the deterioration of life has been finished in the vicious cycle, the lofty dignity in their soul has begun to decline, being withered and haggard. They just think much of their flesh, rather than the sublimation of soul.
