Haakon Sigurdsson/oehlenschl%C3%A4ger Tragedy

Famous quotes containing the word tragedy:

    There are few things more difficult than to appraise the work of a man suddenly dead in his youth; to disentangle “promise” from achievement; to save him from that sentimentalizing which confuses the tragedy of the interruption with the merit of the work actually performed.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
