Letitia Elizabeth Landon

I think of predators dropping silently from trees: I think of enormous cats with glowing amber eyes, just like his. Lauren Oliver

If only they would realize above all that an artist works of necessity, that he himself is only a trifling bit of the world, and that no more importance should be attached to him than to plenty of other things which please us in the world, though we can't explain them. People who try to explain pictures are usually barking up the wrong tree.
