“Is the artist impelled by spiritual forces, by the divine afflatus, by conscious or unconscious emulation of others? Do angles whisper in the ears of the chosen few, and create for them visions of aethereal beauty? Do landscape painters of genius walk the plains of Heaven? Or is it only vanity that urges him to paint?” SpiritualArtistForceHeavenWalksVisionDivineGeniusConsciousEarsPaintChosenPainterVanityLandscapeUnconsciousUrgesAngleReal BeautyEmulation Author:Walter J.

“The act of self-denial seems to confer on us the right to be harsh and merciless toward others. The impression somehow prevails that the true believer, particularly the religious individual, is a humble person. The truth is that the surrendering and humbling of the self breed pride and arrogance.

He who is not of his faith is evil; he who will not listen shall perish.” PersonsSelfSeemsEarthEvilIndividualHeavenReligiousHumilityPrideTruth IsHumbleBelieverImpressionKingdomsChosenDenialArroganceSaltHarshDestinedHumblingKingdom Of HeavenMeeknessTrue BelieverSelf-denialSalt Of The EarthHumble PersonPride And Arrogance Book:THE TRUE BELIEVER Source: THE TRUE BELIEVER
