Art

The best works of art are the expression of man's struggle to free himself from this condition, but the effect of our art is merely to make this low state comfortable and that higher state to be forgotten.

There is actually no place in this village for a work of fine art, if any had come down to us, to stand, for our lives, our houses and streets, furnish no proper pedestal for it.

There is not a nail to hang a picture on, nor a shelf to receive the bust of a hero or a saint.

Thoughts

We now no longer camp as for a night, but have settled down on earth and forgotten heaven.

We have adopted Christianity merely as an improved method of agriculture.

We have built for this world a family mansion, and for the next a family tomb.
