Strana 334 - And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
Strana 212 - West is comprised in two brief periods, one of some three hundred years ending with the Christian era, one of a similar space of time dating from the crusades to the Reformation: the art of Japan lasts unbroken from the middle of the seventh century to the middle of the nineteenth, a duration of twelve hundred years. It is...
Strana 356 - As you are, so are your buildings; and, as are your buildings, so are you. You and your Architecture are the same. Each is the faithful portrait of the other. To read the one is to read the other. To interpret the one is to interpret the other. Arising from both, as a miasma: What falsity! What betrayal of the present and the past !

Whatever the character of the thinking, just so was the character of the building.
Strana 744 - Whitman, the workman, the normal (or " average ") man — for of course the man who deals with materials and wins his living from them is the normal man — comes, for the first time, in a deliberate and representative way, into literature. He comes, not as a man who abandons his former mode of life in order to seek a literary ideal, but as the master-workman who stays where he is and uses literary form for his own expression — and with the same directness and mastery that he uses towards life.

Strana 745 - ... like an-y common laborer. Along with his pail he usually carried a book, between which and his solitary meal he would divide his nooning. Once the book chanced to be a volume of Emerson ; and from that time he took with him no other writer.
Strana 745 - One book, last summer, came out in New York, a nondescript monster which yet had terrible eyes and buffalo strength, and was indisputably American, — which I thought to send you ; but the book throve so badly with the few to whom I showed it, and wanted good morals so much, that I never did. Yet I believe now again, I shall. It is called Leaves of Grass, — was written and printed by a journeyman printer in Brooklyn, New York, named Walter Whitman ; and after you have looked into it, if you think,...
