"We are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems."
( Arthur O'Shaughnessy )
"Art is a jealous mistress and if a man have genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture, or philosophy he makes a bad husband and an ill provider"
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
"The writings of the wise are the only riches our posterity cannot squander"
(Walter Savage Landor)
"May I be looking at you when my last hour has come, and as I die may I hold you with my weakening hand"
(Tibullus - for Sam and Sonia)
"A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them"
(Carl Jung)
