To be happy you must have taken the measure of your powers,... - George Santayana

"An artist is a dreamer consenting to dream of the actual world."

"Friendship is almost always the union of a part of one mind with the part of another; people are friends in spots."

"Beauty as we feel it is something indescribable; what it is or what it means can never be said."

"The earth has music for those who listen."

"One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human."
