Ilka Chase quotes about
loneliness two effort
in love, gallantry is necessary. Even when the first wild desire is gone, especially then, there is an inherent need for good manners and consideration, for the putting forth of effort. Two courteous and civilized human beings out of the loneliness of their souls owe that to each other.
religious atheist men
It is usually when men are at their most religious that they behave with the least sense and the greatest cruelty.
photography essence imagination
Some objects and events may be photographed, others, if one is to render their true quality, should be painted or set to music, since their essence is more faithfully reproduced through imagination than by the journalistic report.
differences littles results
Between frivolity and intentional mischief there is little difference, none in the results.
heart college prom
I've got a heart like a college prom. Each one I dance with seems the best of all.
distance attachment may
Love at a distance may be poignant; it is also idealized. Contact, more than separation, is the test of attachment.
experience passing-away humans
everything you experience is what constitutes you as a human being, but the experience passes away and the person's left. The person is the residue.
sleep night clothes
Next to a good meal and possibly a long night's sleep the greatest morale builder ... is clothes.
art naked taste
Art, we are told, is a criterion of one's taste. How humiliating, should our taste turn out to be bad. Rather as though we were caught stark naked with a poor figure.
art mean eye
I think it is every woman's duty to make herself as attractive as her time and means permit. After all, there you are, in your person- a living symbol of the progress of art, science and imagination. To be as attractive as we can be is almost a civic duty; there are so many sad and ugly things in the world that I think women should say to themselves humbly, not with vanity, 'I will try to be as pretty as I can, so that when people look at me, they will feel refreshed. I will make an effort to be easy on the eye.'
political dry intellect
Intellect alone is a dry and rattling thing.
stress ignorance people
People are subject to moods, to temptations and fears, lethargy and aberration and ignorance, and the staunchest qualities shift under the stresses and strains of daily life.
photography people thank-god
Very few people, thank God, look like the pictures of them which are published in the papers and the weekly magazines ...
book eye blood
I suppose anyone who has ever written a travel book has had the experience of being accosted by a reader with blood in his eye and a lawsuit in his voice.
