Beautiful Mind

Famous quotes containing the words beautiful and/or mind:

“The man Shelley, in very truth, is not entirely sane, and Shelley’s poetry is not entirely sane either. The Shelley of actual life is a vision of beauty and radiance, indeed, but availing nothing, effecting nothing. And in poetry, no less than in life, he is a beautiful and ineffectual angel, beating in the void his luminous wings in vain.””
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

“He teaches me to set my heart on nothing. He detaches my mind from friends and relations; and I could watch on as brother, children, mother, and wife all died, and not care in the least.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
