Life begets life. Energy creates energy. It is by spending oneself that one becomes rich. ------------------------ I have, thanks to my travels, added to my stock all the superstitions of other countries. I know them all now, and in any critical moment of my life, they all rise up in armed legions for or against me. ------------------------ Once the curtain is raised, the actor is ceases to belong to himself. He belongs to his character, to his author, to his public. He must do the impossible to identify himself with the first, not to betray the second, and not to disappoint the third. ------------------------ The monster of advertisement... is a sort of octopus with innumerable tentacles. It throws out to right and left, in front and behind, its clammy arms, and gathers in, through its thousand little suckers, all the gossip and slander and praise afloat, to spit out again at the public. ------------------------ The truth, the absolute truth, is that the chief beauty for the theatre consists in fine bodily proportions. ------------------------ He who is incapable of feeling strong passions, of being shaken by anger, of living in every sense of the word, will never be a good actor. ------------------------ Legend remains victorious in spite of history. |

Beauty is the highest of all these occult influences, the quality of appearances that thru' the sense wakeneth spiritual emotion in the mind of man. ------------------------ Behind the western bars The shrouded day retreats, And unperceived the stars Steal to their sovran seats. And whiter grows the foam, The small moon lightens more; And as I turn me home, My shadow walks before. The Clouds have left the Sky. ------------------------ Beneath the crisp and wintry carpet hid A million buds but stay their blossoming And trustful birds have built their nests amid The shuddering boughs, and only wait to sing Till one soft shower from the south shall bid And hither tempt the pilgrim steps of Spring. ------------------------ But I can tell - let truth be told - That love will change in growing old; Though day by day is nought to see, So delicate his motions be. ------------------------ I have loved flowers that fade, Within those magic tents Rich hues have marriage made With sweet unmemoried scents. ------------------------ I know that if odour were visible, as colour is, I'd see the summer garden in rainbow clouds. ------------------------ I live on hope and that I think do all Who come into this world. ------------------------ Man's Reason is in such deep insolvency to sense, that tho' she guide his highest flight heav'nward, and teach him dignity morals manners and human comfort, she can delicately and dangerously bedizen the rioting joys that fringe the sad pathways of Hell. |
