Life And Art Are Not

Never Mind, Put Any Book On The Piano, And Someone Can Turn From Time To Time, So I Need Not Look As Though I Played By Heart.

I Dislike Nothing More Than Finding Fault With A Man's Nature Or Talent; It Only Depresses And Worries And Does No Good; One Cannot Add A Cubit To One's Stature, All Striving And Struggling Are Useless There, So One Has To Be Silent About It, And Let The Responsibility Rest With God.

Life And Art Are Not Two Different Things.

Pray To God That He Might Create Is Us A Clean Heart And Renew A Right Spirit Within Us.

And Here We Come To The Vital Distinction Between The Advocacy Of Temperance And The Advocacy Of Prohibition. Temperance And Self-control Are Convertible Terms.

In Order To Save The Small Percentage Of Men Who Are Too Weak To Resist Their Animal Desires, It Aims To Put Chains On Every Man, The Weak And The Strong Alike. And If This Is Proper In One Respect, Why Not In All Respects? Yet, What Would One Think Of A Proposition To Keep All Men Locked Up Because A Certain Number Have A Propensity To Steal?
