Text Quotes
The dead are happy, having no desire. I rise and fall, and rise and fall again, Something is in me, famishing for bread, Baffled and unappeasable as fire  (Arthur Symons Quotes) There are certain natures to whom work is nothing, the act of work everything  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Leave words to them whom words, not doings, move  (Arthur Symons Quotes) My soul is like this cloudy, flaming opal ring  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Night, a more perfect day  (Arthur Symons Quotes) It is in their eyes that their magic resides  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Vaguely conscious of that great suspense in which we live, we find our escape from its sterile, annihilating reality in many dreams, in religion, passion, art  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Art begins when a man wishes to immortalize the most vivid moment he has ever lived  (Arthur Symons Quotes) He knew that the whole mystery of beauty can never be comprehended by the crowd, and that while clearness is a virtue of style, perfect explicitness is not a necessary virtue  (Arthur Symons Quotes) A place has almost a shyness of a person with strangers; its secret is not to be surprised by too direct interrogation  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Hardly any one is able to see what is before him, just as it is in itself. He comes expecting one thing, he finds another thing, he sees through the veil of his preconception, he criticizes before he has apprehended, he condemns without allowing his instinct the chance of asserting itself  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Without charm there can be no fine literature, as there can be no perfect flower without fragrance  (Arthur Symons Quotes) The making of one’s life into art is, after all, the first duty and privilege of every man  (Arthur Symons Quotes) A realist, in Venice, would become a romantic by mere faithfulness to what he saw before him  (Arthur Symons Quotes) What we ask of him is, that he should find out for us more than we can find out for ourselves... He must have the passion of a lover  (Arthur Symons Quotes) There is not a dream which may not come true, if we have the energy which makes or chooses our own fate... It is only the dreams of those light sleepers who dream faintly that do not come true  (Arthur Symons Quotes) But we have been taught to see before our eyes have found out a way of seeing for themselves  (Arthur Symons Quotes) Criticism is properly the rod of divination: a hazel switch for the discovery of buried treasure, not a birch twig for the castigation of offenders  (Arthur Symons Quotes)
