Sculpture Quotes

1   As when, O lady mine, With chiselled touch The stone unhewn and cold Becomes a living mould, The more the marble wastes The more the statue grows. Angelo Michael
2   Sculpture is more than painting. It is greater To raise the dead to life than to create Phantoms that seem to live. Longfellow Henry Wadsworth
3   So stands the statue that enchants the world, So bending tries to veil the matchless boast, The mingled beauties of exulting Greece. Thomson James
4   And the cold marble leapt to life a god. Milman Henry
5   Or view the lord of the unerring bow, The god of life, and poesy, and light.-- The sun in human limbs arrayed, and brow All radiant from his triumph in the fight; The shaft hath just been shot,--the arrow bright With an immortal's vengeance; in his eye And nostril beautiful disdain, and might And majesty, flash their full lightnings by, Developing in that one glance the Deity. But in his delicate form--a dream of love, Shaped by some solitary nymph, whose breast Longed for a deathless lover from above, And maddened in that vision--are exprest All that ideal beauty ever blessed The mind within its most unearthly mood, When each conception was a heavenly guest, A ray of immortality, and stood, Starlike, around, until they gathered to a god! Byron Lord
