Love is Enough Love is enough:...

Love is Enough Love is enough: though the world be a-waning, And the woods have no voice but the voice of complaining, Though the skies be too dark for dim eyes to discover The gold-cups and daisies fair blooming thereunder, Though the hills be held shadows, and the sea a dark wonder, And this day draw a veil over all deeds passed over, Yet their hands shall not tremble, their feet shall not falter: The void shall not weary, the fear shall not alter These lips and these eyes of the loved and the lover.

William Morris 119 quotes

So I say, if you cannot learn ...

So I say, if you cannot learn to love real art; at least learn to hate sham art and reject it. It is not because the wretched thing is so ugly and silly and useless that I ask you to cast it from you; it is much more because these are but the outward symbols of the poison that lies within them; look through them and see all that has gone to their fashioning, and you will see how vain labour, and sorrow, and disgrace have been their companions from the first-and all this for trifles that no man really needs!

In Prison Wearily, drearily, H...

In Prison Wearily, drearily, Half the day long, Flap the great banners High over the stone; Strangely and eerily Sounds the wind's song, Bending the banner-poles. While, all alone, Watching the loophole's spark, Lie I, with life all dark, Feet tethered, hands fettered Fast to the stone, The grim walls, square lettered With prisoned men's groan. Still strain the banner-poles Through the wind's song, Westward the banner rolls Over my wrong.

Death have we hated, knowing not what it meant; Life we have loved, through green leaf and through sere, Though still the less we knew of its intent.

William Morris 119 quotes

All rooms ought to look as if ...

All rooms ought to look as if they were lived in, and to have so to say, a friendly welcome ready for the incomer.

William Morris 119 quotes

Simplicity of life, even the b...

Simplicity of life, even the barest, is not a misery, but the very foundation of refinement.

Late February days; and now, at last,
Might you have thought that
Winter's woe was past;
So fair the sky was and so soft the air.

We are only the trustees for those who come after us.

William Morris 119 quotes

It is the childlike part of us...

It is the childlike part of us that produces works of the imagination. When we were children time passed so slow with us that we seemed to have time for everything.

If a chap can't compose an epic poem while he's weaving tapestry, he had better shut up, he'll never do any good at all.

William Morris 119 quotes

Beauty, which is what is meant...

Beauty, which is what is meant by art, using the word in its widest sense, is, I contend, no mere accident to human life, which people can take or leave as they choose, but a positive necessity of life.

William Morris 119 quotes

The greatest foe to art is lux...

The greatest foe to art is luxury, art cannot live in its atmosphere.

No man is good enough to be another's master.

William Morris 119 quotes

Artists cannot help themselves...

Artists cannot help themselves; they are driven to create by their nature, but for that nature to truly thrive, we need to preserve the precious habitat in which that beauty can flourish.

Love is enough: though the world be a-waning, And the woods have no voice but the voice of complaining.

And the deeds that ye do upon ...

And the deeds that ye do upon this earth, it is for fellowship's sake that ye do them.

A pattern is either right or wrong...it is no stronger than its weakest point.

William Morris 119 quotes

Do not be afraid of large patt...

Do not be afraid of large patterns, if properly designed they are more restful to the eye than small ones: on the whole, a pattern where the structure is large and the details much broken up is the most useful...very small rooms, as well as very large ones, look better ornamented with large patterns.

My work is the embodiment of dreams in one form or another.
