“Can any one find in what condition his body will be, I do not say a year hence, but this evening?”

“The more virtuous any man is, the less easily does he suspect others to be vicious.”

“A happy life consists in tranquility of mind.”

“Eyes...They speak all languages.”

“The face is a picture of the mind with the eyes as its interpreter.”

“The old man looked at him with his sun-burned, confident loving eyes.”

“Unexplained, obscure matters are regarded as more important than explained, clear ones.”

“Painting predicates what man wants to see, and what man ought to see, not what he ordinarily sees.”

“The more we study Art, the less we care for Nature. What Art really reveals to us is Nature's lack of design, her curious crudities, her extraordinary monotony, her absolutely unfinished condition.”
