Robert Bridges“I know that if odour were visible, as colour is, I'd see the summer garden in rainbow clouds.”
Robert Bridges“What are works of art for? to educate, to be standards. To produce is of little use unless what we produce is known, is widely known, the wider known the better, for it is by being known that it works, it influences, it does its duty, it does good. We must try, then, to be known, aim at it, take means to it. And this without puffing in the process or pride in the success.”
Gerard Manley Hopkins, Letters to Robert Bridges and Correspondence with Richard Watson Dixon“All things therefore are charged with love, are charged with God and if we knew how to touch them give off sparks and take fire, yield drops and flow, ring and tell of him.”
