“What is art,
But life upon the larger scale, the higher,
When, graduating up in a spiral line
Of still expanding and ascending gyres,
It pushes toward the intense significance
Of all things, hungry for the Infinite?
Arts life,and where we live, we suffer and toil.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (18061861)
