More From John Ruskin
- "It is in this power of saying everything, and yet saying nothing too plainly, that the perfection of art consists."
- "It is impossible, as impossible as to raise the dead, to restore anything that has ever been great or beautiful in architecture. That which I have insisted upon as the life of the whole, that spirit which is given only by the hand and eye of the workman, can never be recalled."
- "Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence, and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs."
