More on Beauty
“The two most beautiful sights I have witnessed in my life are a full blown ship at sail and the round-bellied pregnant female.”
“The significance is hiding in the insignificant. Appreciate everything.”
“As in many countries precious metals belong to the crown, so here more precious natural objects of rare beauty should belong to the public.”
More on Nature
“The brawling of a sparrow in the eaves The brilliant moon and all the milky sky And all that famous harmony of leaves Had blotted out man's image and his cry.”
“It appears to be a law that you cannot have a deep sympathy with both man and nature.”
“Art can never match the luxury and superfluity of Nature. In the former all is seen; it cannot afford concealed wealth, and is niggardly in comparison; but Nature, even when she is scant and thin outwardly, satisfies us still by the assurance of a certain generosity at the roots.”
