“Beauty is sometimes hidden under a veil of tragedy.”
“If the Beautiful One is not inside you, then what is that Light hidden under your cloak?”
“How Rhythm Beautifies.- Rhythm casts a veil over reality; it causes various artificiality’s of speech and obscurities of thought; by the shadow it throws upon thought it sometimes conceals it, and sometimes brings it into prominence. As shadow is necessary to beauty, so the “dull” is necessary to lucidity. Art makes the aspect of life endurable by throwing over it the veil of obscure thought.”
“...Under the veil of Mythology lies a solid Reality.”
“The value of myth is that it takes all the things you know and restores to them the rich significance which has been hidden by the veil of familiarity.”
“Even amidst tragedy there is laughter, sometimes farce. The degree of farce depends on who is running the tragedy.”
