I Have Never Felt Salvation In Nature.

How Wrong Are Those Simpletons, Of Whom The World Is Full, Who Look More At... Color Than At The Figures Which Show Spirit And Movement.

No Thought Is Born In Me That Does Not Bear The Image Of Death.

The Best Of Artists Hath No Thought To Show Which The Rough Stone In Its Superfluous Shell Doth Not Include; To Break The Marble Spell Is All The Hand That Serves The Brain Can Do.

Read The Heart And Not The Letter For The Pen Cannot Draw Near The Good Intent.

I Live And Love In God's Peculiar Light.
