Quotes about: Art

• Thou art beautiful because God created thee, but thou art a slave to sin... wickedness has made you ugly.

  George MacDonald

  Beautiful, Art, Wickedness

• When I can no more stir my soul to move, and life is but the ashes of a fire; when I can but remember that my heart once used to live and love, long and aspire- O, be thou then the first, the one thou art; be thou the calling, before all answering love, and in me wake hope, fear, boundless desire.

  George MacDonald

  Art, Moving, Fire

  George MacDonald (2006). “A Book of Strife in the Form of the Diary of an Old Soul”, p.6, ReadHowYouWant.com

• Love me, beloved; Hades and Death Shall vanish away like a frosty breath; These hands, that now are at home in thine, Shall clasp thee again, if thou art still mine; And thou shalt be mine, my spirit's bride, In the ceaseless flow of eternity's tide, If the truest love thy heart can know Meet the truest love that from mine can flow. Pray God, beloved, for thee and me, That our sourls may be wedded eternally.

  George MacDonald, “Within And Without: Part Iv: A Dramatic Poem”

• The perfection of His relation to us swallows up all our imperfections, all our defeats, all our evils; for our childhood is born of His fatherhood. That man is perfect in faith who can come to God in the utter dearth of his feelings and his desires, without a glow or an aspiration, with the weight of low thoughts, failures, neglects, and wandering forgetfulness, and say to Him, “Thou art my refuge, because Thou art my home”.
