So every creative act strives to attain an absolute status it longs to create a world of beauty to triumph over chaos and convert it to order.

I write for no other purpose than to add to the beauty that now belongs to me. I write a book for no other reason than to add three or four hundred acres to my magnificent estate.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Art is not merely an imitation of the reality of nature but in truth a metaphysical supplement to the reality of nature placed alongside thereof for its conquest.

The artist belongs to his work not the work to the artist.

Does it follow that the house has nothing in common with art and is architecture not to be included in the arts? Only a very small part of architecture belongs to art: the tomb and the monument. Everything else that fulfils a function is to be excluded from the domain of art.

Every time a student walks past a really urgent expressive piece of architecture that belongs to his college it can help reassure him that he does have that mind does have that soul.

Fair peace becomes men ferocious anger belongs to beasts.

Personally I had the opportunity to go on several ride alongs with the LA County Sheriff's Department with some amazing detectives who were invaluable to me.

Absolute truth belongs to Thee alone.

We cannot know the whole truth which belongs to God alone but our task nevertheless is to seek to know what is true. And if we offend gravely enough against what we know to be true as by failing badly enough to deal affectionately and responsibly with our land and our neighbors truth will retaliate with ugliness poverty and disease.

It is a great mystery that though the human heart longs for Truth in which alone it finds liberation and delight the first reaction of human beings to Truth is one of hostility and fear!

The young people have MTV and rock and roll. Why would they go to read poetry? Poetry belongs to the Stone Age. It awakens in us perceptions that go back to those times.

Old age is far more than white hair wrinkles the feeling that it is too late and the game finished that the stage belongs to the rising generations. The true evil is not the weakening of the body but the indifference of the soul.

Rashness belongs to youth prudence to old age.
