John Ruskin Zitate

→

It is impossible, as impossible as to raise the dead, to restore anything that has ever been great or beautiful in architecture. That which I have insisted upon as the life of the whole, that spirit which is given only by the hand and eye of the workman, can never be recalled.

John Ruskin

Deutsche Übersetzung

Es ist unmöglich, die Toten aufzuerwecken, etwas wiederherzustellen, was in der Architektur jemals großartig oder schön war. Das, worauf ich als das Leben des Ganzen bestanden habe, der Geist, der nur durch die Hand und das Auge des Arbeiters gegeben wird, kann niemals in Erinnerung gerufen werden.

I've never run into a guy who could win at the top level in anything today and didn't have the right attitude, didn't give it everything he had, at least while he was doing it; wasn't prepared and didn't have the whole program worked out.

Ted Turner

We should burn all libraries and allow to remain only that which everyone knows by heart. A beautiful age of the legend would then begin.

I love L.A., but I don't live there. I spent some time there when I was recording 'Kaleidoscope,' mainly working with some of the artists I collaborated with. The city and people in L.A. have a great vibe and the weather is always beautiful.

Now, I don't actually know the exact cut-off age where beautiful ceases and 'must have-once-been-beautiful' begins. It's true it's not forty-five. I can still get attention when I try really hard, even if it's greatly reduced.

Although I'm an atheist who believes only in great nature, I recognize the spiritual richness and grandeur of the Roman Catholicism in which I was raised.

Camille Paglia

I really feel gratitude every day in my life that I'm able to do what I love, and I think, because I have that passion and spirit, I've had success.

Christen Press

Two of my grandfathers had been artists, lifelong oil painters, so I was exposed to art very young. I've always been interested in it, although I never pursued it as a career or even as an avocation.

Susan Vreeland

The lesson of travel seems to be so banal, but so great, which is that people are just so amazingly decent the world over. Given the disparity of income and wealth, it's amazing not just that you don't get robbed everywhere - it's amazing you don't get eaten.

Geoff Dyer

Every abstract picture of the world is as impossible as a blueprint of a storm. Don't be ashamed because you're human: be proud! Inside you, vaults behind vaults open endlessly. You will never be finished, and that's as it should be.
