'' Iste hayatta hep boyle ya dusunen ya da duyan yaradilislar vardir: Ya dusunen kafa ya da duyan kafa. Bunlarin birinden hareket adamlari dogar, generaller, devlet adamlari gibi; oburunden de sairler, hayalperestler; hep sanatcilar. Bu sonuncular, ruzgarla savrulan ekin tanecikleri gibi, hayalin her esintisine uyarlar; degisen davranislariyla da ulkelerinin yukselisini, alcalisini dile getirirler. Insanoglu ulkuyu anlayamadigi gibi hayal kurani da daha tam olarak anlayamamistir. Hayal kuranlar icin dunyanin kanunlari, ahlak kurallari fazla ciddidir. Hep guzelligin sesine kulak veren, isigin hep o pek uzaklardaki kanatlarinin özlemini ceken hayalperest, geze geze ayaklarini yorarak cevresini inceler.''
“Thus in life there is ever the intellectual and the emotional nature the mind that reasons, and the mind that feels. Of one come the men of action generals and statesmen; of the other, the poets and dreamers artists all. As harps in the wind, the latter respond to every breath of fancy, voicing in their moods all the ebb and flow of the ideal. Man has not yet comprehended the dreamer any more than he has the ideal. For him the laws and morals of the world are unduly severe. Ever hearkening to the sound of beauty, straining for the flash of its distant wings, he watches to follow, wearying his feet in travelling.”
