"No good is ever done to society by the pictorial representation of its diseases." ― John Ruskin Topic(s): Society More From John Ruskin "An architect should live as little in cities as a painter. Send him to our hills, and let him study there what nature understands by a buttress, and what by a dome." "You may either win your peace or buy it: win it, by resistance to evil; buy it, by compromise with evil." "All great art is the work of the whole living creature, body and soul, and chiefly of the soul." More In Society "I believe if there is any place left where the humanity is still visible, it can not be anywhere else than in an Islamic society. Time would come when the world would be obliged to accept this reality."― Jermaine Jackson "Faith is an oasis in the heart which will never be reached by the caravan of thinking."― Khalil Gibran "Tolerance is the price we pay for living in a free, pluralistic society."― Robert Casey
