It is only through the morning gate of the beautiful that you can penetrate into the realm of knowledge. That which we feel here as beauty we shall one day know as truth.
Our safety is not in blindness, but in facing our dangers.
Appearance should never attain reality, And if nature conquers, then must art retire.
Obedience decks the Christian most.
Time consecrates; and what is gray with age becomes religion.
Stern is the visage of necessity.
