Famous quotes containing the words presenting, view and/or art:

    Every natural fact is a symbol of some spiritual fact. Every appearance in nature corresponds to some state of the mind, and that state of the mind can only be described by presenting that natural appearance as its picture.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The heavenly Babe you there shall find
    To human view displayed,
    All meanly wrapped in swaddling bands
    And in a manger laid.
    Nahum Tate (1652–1715)

    All art is a struggle to be, in a particular sort of way, virtuous.
    Iris Murdoch (b. 1919)
