A wise man is superior to any insults which can be put upon him, and the best reply to unseemly behavior is patience and moderation.

True solitude is a din of birdsong, seething leaves, whirling colors, or a clamor of tracks in the snow.

Edward Hoagland

By the grace of God, I'll be that man.

Dwight L. Moody

Draw your pleasure, paint your pleasure, and express your pleasure strongly.

Pierre Bonnard

Steven Erikson

Her absence is like the sky, spread over everything.

C.S. Lewis

The sadness of the incomplete, the sadness that is often Life, but should never be Art.

E. M. Forster

Ezra Pound

Upon my word, Emma, to hear you abusing the reason you have, is almost enough to make me think so too. Better be without sense than misapply it as you do.

Jane Austen

William Shakespeare
