Quotes

  • In literature, in art, in life, I think that the only conclusions worth coming to are one's own conclusions . If they march with the verdict of the connoisseurs , so much the better for the connoisseurs ; if they do not so march , so much the better for oneself.
  • Good and beautiful things may easily be spoiled by suggestions of rights and duties
