Description

Excerpt from The Art of Writing and Speaking the English Language: How to Read and What to Read

Distinctions between truth, nobility, and beauty are merely for the sake of helping our thought. That which is noble must be true and it must be beautiful. That which is lacking in truth is lack ing also in beauty. This, however, we are not ai ways able to discover without analysing. Some thing may seem beautiful while we are thinking of beauty alone; but let us test its nobility or its truth, and if these are wanting we suddenly discover de feets in the beauty we had not perceived before.
