Genius is eternal patience.
Genius is eternal patience.
Wisdom worth sharing, words worth remembering.
Genius is eternal patience.
I have never felt salvation in nature. I love cities above all.
I am still learning.
I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
I hope that I may always desire more than I can accomplish.
I live and love in God's peculiar light.
If we have been pleased with life we should not be displeased with death since it comes from the hand of the same master.
Death and love are the two wings that bear the good man to heaven.
The promises of this world are for the most part vain phantoms and to confide in one's self and become something of worth and value is the best and safest course.
Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.
Every beauty which is seen here by persons of perception resembles more than anything else that celestial source from which we all are come.
If in my youth I had realized that the sustaining splendour of beauty of with which I was in love would one day flood back into my heart there to ignite a flame that would torture me without end how gladly would I have put out the light in my eyes.
