“The essential of a real picture is that the things which occur in it occur to him in his peculiarly personal fashion.. ..the idea of modernity is but a new attachment of things universal - a fresh relationship to the courses of the sun and to the living swing of the earth - a new fire of affection for the living essence present everywhere.” IdeasRealEarthCoursesSunFireFashionEssentialsEssenceUniversalAffectionAttachmentSwingsModernity Author:Marsden Hartley
“While the poet entertains he continues to search for eternal truths, for the essence of being. In his own fashion he tries to solve the riddle of time and change, to find an answer to suffering, to reveal love in the very abyss of cruelty and injustice. Strange as these words may sound I often play with the idea that when all the social theories collapse and wars and revolutions leave humanity in utter gloom, the poet--whom Plato banned from his Republic--may rise up to save us all.” TryingMayIdeasWarPlaySufferingHumanitySocialSoundAnswersFashionStrangePoetTheoryRevolutionEternalEssenceInjusticeSolveCrueltyRepublicCollapsePlatoAbyssGloomRiddleBannedTime And ChangeSocial Theory Book:Aspects of I.B.

It is an educational task, and its very essence is to bring to the minds of all men everywhere, as a necessary basis for world cooperation, a new telling and interpretation, a common interpretation, of history.” IfsMenWorldMindMayEndsGovernmentMovingLawCommonFashionProduceLessonsTasksEssenceBasesEducationalSecureSufficientInterpretationRighteousnessCooperationWorld Government Author:H.
