SI PERMANECEMOS ...




Si permanecemos tranquilos y lo bastante preparados, encontraremos compensación en cada contrariedad

Diario 23 de Septiembre de 1838

La percepción de la belleza es un "test" moral

HDT 

(traducción Guillermo Ruiz)


“Nature has looked uncommonly bare & dry to me for a day or two. With our senses applied to the surrounding world we are reading our own physical and corresponding moral revolutions. Nature was so shallow all at once I did not know what had attracted me all my life. I was therefore encouraged when going through a field this evening, I was unexpectedly struck with the beauty of an apple tree — The perception of beauty is a moral test.”


Journal June 21, 1852
