“Good painters imitated nature while bad ones vomited it.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“There are only two styles of portrait painting: the serious and the smirk.”
Nicholas Nickleby • Charles Dickens“I have never said that human society ought to be aristocratic, but a great deal more than that. What I have said, and still believe with ever-increasing conviction, is that human society is always, whether it will or no, aristocratic by its very essence, to the extreme that it is a society in the measure that it is aristocratic, and ceases to be such when it ceases to be aristocratic. Of course I am speaking now of society and not of the State.”
the Revolt of the Masses • Jose Ortega y Gasset““For let me tell you, that the more the pleasures of the body fade away, the greater to me is the pleasure and charm of conversation.””
Republic • Plato“″‘Hope,’ he says, ‘cherishes the soul of him who lives in justice and holiness, and is the nurse of his age and the companion of his journey;—hope which is mightiest to sway the restless soul of man.‘””
Republic • Plato
