“Art is the distillate of life, the winnowed result of the experience of a people, the record of the joyous adventure of the creative spirit in us toward a higher world; a world in which all ideas, thoughts, and forms are pure and beautiful and completely clear, the world Plato held to be perfect and eternal. All works that have in them an element of joy are records of this adventure.” PeopleWorldArtIdeasBeautifulFormJoySpiritPerfectResultsCreativeClearRecordsAdventureHigherPureElementsEternalArt IsPlatoJoyousCreative Spirit Author:Lawren Harris

“The romantic temper, so often and so grievously misinterpreted and not more by others than by its own, is an insecure, unsatisfied, and impatient temper which sees no fit abode here for its ideals and chooses therefore to behold them under insensible figures. As a result of this choice it comes to disregard certain limitations. Its figures are blown to wild adventures, lacking the gravity of solid bodies, and the mind that has conceived them ends by disowning them.” MindEndsBodyCertainChoicesResultsFiguresAdventureFitIdealsLimitationTemperGravityLackingInsecureAestheticsImpatientRomanticismDisregardAbodeUnsatisfiedInsensibleMisinterpretedDisowning Author:James Joyce
