Page 647 - Fear not: for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger.
Page 648 - For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name. And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.

A nation may establish a system of free government, but without the spirit of municipal institutions it cannot have the spirit of liberty.
Page 155 - Between realism and idealism, there is no natural conflict. This completes that. Realism is the basis of good composition : it implies study, observation, artistic power, and (in those who can do more) humility.
Page 300 - who will one day have the happiness to possess this fertile and pleasant strait, will be very much obliged to those who have shown them the way.
Page 284 - He was the greatest of the Britons of his time — and after the British fashion of not coming near perfection ; Titanic, not Olympian : a heaver of rocks, not a shaper. But if he did no perfect work, he had lightning's power to strike out marvellous pictures and reach to the inmost of men with a phrase.
