It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little.

See! This our fathers did for us.

Come, ye cold winds, at January's call, On whistling wings, and with white flakes bestrew The earth.

It is among children, and as children only, that you will find your healing and true wisdom for your teaching

Blue color is everlastingly appointed by the deity to be a source of delight.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

Everything that you can see in...

Everything that you can see in the world around you presents itself to your eyes only as an arrangement of patches of different colors.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

The man who can see all gray, ...

The man who can see all gray, and red, and purples in a peach, will paint the peach rightly round, and rightly altogether. But the man who has only studied its roundness may not see its purples and grays, and if he does not will never get it to look like a peach; so that great power over color is always a sign of large general art-intellect.

Living without an aim, is like sailing without a compass.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

When men do not love their hea...

When men do not love their hearth, nor reverence their thresholds, it is a sign that they have dishonoured both ... Our God is a house-hold God, as well as a heavenly one; He has an altar in every man's dwelling.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

In every person who comes near...

In every person who comes near you look for what is good and strong.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

Whatever merit there is in any...

Whatever merit there is in anything that I have written is simply due to the fact that when I was a child my mother daily read me a part of the Bible and daily made me learn a part of it by heart.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

To be able to ask a question c...

To be able to ask a question clearly is two-thirds of the way to getting it answered.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

Being thus prepared for us in ...

Being thus prepared for us in all ways, and made beautiful, and good for food, and for building, and for instruments of our hands, this race of plants, deserving boundless affection and admiration from us, becomes, in proportion to their obtaining it, a nearly perfect test of our being in right temper of mind and way of life; so that no one can be far wrong in either who loves trees enough, and everyone is assuredly wrong in both who does not love them, if his life has brought them in his way.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

Though you may have known clev...

Though you may have known clever men who were indolent, you never knew a great man who was so; and when I hear a young man spoken of as giving promise of great genius, the first question I ask about him always is, Does he work?

John Ruskin 780 quotes

Make yourselves nests of pleas...

Make yourselves nests of pleasant thoughts. None of us knows what fairy palaces we may build of beautiful thought-proof against all adversity. Bright fancies, satisfied memories, noble histories, faithful sayings, treasure houses of precious and restful thoughts, which care cannot disturb, nor pain make gloomy, nor poverty take away from us.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

When we build, let us think th...

When we build, let us think that we build forever.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

No one can ask honestly or hopefully to be delivered from temptation unless he has himself honestly and firmly determined to do the best he can to keep out of it.

John Ruskin 780 quotes

In health of mind and body, me...

In health of mind and body, men should see with their own eyes, hear and speak without trumpets, walk on their feet, not on wheels, and work and war with their arms, not with engine-beams, nor rifles warranted to kill twenty men at a shot before you can see them.

There is material enough in a single flower for the ornament of a score of cathedrals.

Kind hearts are the garden, kind thoughts are the roots, kind words are the blossoms, kind deeds are the fruit.
