Culture has one great passion, the passion for sweetness and light. It has one even yet greater, the passion for making them prevail.
Matthew Arnold Quotes
One thing only has been lent to youth and age in common – discontent.
And we are here as on a darkling plain Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, Where ignorant armies clash by night.
To have the sense of creative activity is the great happiness and the great proof of being alive.
It is – last stage of all, When we are frozen up within, and quite; The phantom of ourselves. To hear the world applaud the hollow ghost, Which blamed the living man.
