Sir Hugo Mallinger

Famous quotes containing the words sir and/or hugo:

“Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.”
—Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)

“Sublime upon sublime scarcely presents a contrast, and we need a little rest from everything, even the beautiful.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
