“Far, far away, there is a beautiful Country which no human eye has ever seen in waking hours. Under the Sunset it lies, where the distant horizon bounds the day, and where the clouds, splendid with light and colour, give a promise of the glory and beauty which encompass it. Sometimes it is given to us to see it in dreams.” GivingHumansCountrySometimesDreamLightEyeBeautifulLyingGivenHoursPromiseGloryBoundsCloudsColourSunsetHorizonWakingFar AwaySplendidHuman EyesBeautiful Country Book:Under the Sunset: And Other Stories Source: Under the Sunset: And Other Stories
“I have a very beautiful life with great friends and I look forward to waking up every day. Every day is a vacation but every day is a workday. I don't want to take vacations because music is my life and if I escape from music, that's the same thing as death. So a vacation is death to me. Sitting on the beach for a week is my idea of hell. That would kill me.” IfsWantLooksIdeasBeautifulHellWeekMusic IsSittingWake UpBeachWakingVacationKill MeBeautiful LifeVery BeautifulGreat FriendMusic Is My LifeSitting On The Beach Author:John Zorn
“The rum fiend would like to go and hang up a skeleton in your beautiful house so that, when you opened the front door to go in, you would see it in the hall; and, when you sat at your table you would see it hanging from the wall; and, when you opened your bedroom you would find it stretched upon your pillow; and, waking at night, you would feel its cold hand passing over your face and pinching at your heart. There is no home so beautiful but it may be devastated by the awful curse.” FeelsHeartMayHomeHandsBeautifulFacesNightHouseDoorsFrontsWallColdTablesPassingPassingsAwfulCurseSatOver YouHallsYour FaceWakingBedroomPillowDrunkennessSkeletonsDevastatedFront DoorsHang UpsYour BeautifulRumPinching Author:Thomas De Witt Talmage
“Ugliness, squalor are breeding grounds for revolution. Beauty is conducive to tranquillity, happiness. Beautifying of homes and places of worship began with the dawn of civilization. Beautifying of workplaces is only in its infancy. Yet, since men normally spend more than half of their waking hours at work, surely it is important that adequate attention be devoted to elevating their working environment, whether office or factory, foundry or machine shop, mine or warehouse. Beautiful surroundings subtly encourage beautiful living. Drab surroundings, bad air, bad light, evoke bad reactions.” MenImportantHomeLightBeautifulHoursWorkAttentionHalfEnvironmentAirMinesRevolutionCivilizationOfficeWorshipMachinesReactionsDawnShopsWakingFactoriesDevotedWorkplaceAdequateSurroundingsUglinessEvokeBreedingInfancyTranquillityElevatingWarehouseSqualorPlaces Of WorshipMachine Shop Author:B.
