DELACROIX

 

 

 

     "God is within us: it is this inner presence which makes us admire the beautiful, which makes us rejoice when we have done right and consoles us for not sharing in the happiness of the wicked. It is that, beyond a doubt, which constitutes the inspiration of men of genius and which warms them at the spectacle of their own productions. There are men of virtue and men of genius; both are favoured o God."

(Delacroix, 1932, 329) 

     “Does nature promise us that we shall love and possess one another elsewhere, without this disquiet and anxiety that accompany our happiest moments? The woods and the springs tell me so.”

(Delacroix, 1971, 229)
