 But there remains the question: what righteousness really is. The method and secret and sweet reasonableness of Jesus.

 Children dear, was it yesterday / (Call yet once) that she went away?

 Come, dear children, let us away; / Down and away below.

 Conduct is three-fourths of our life and its largest concern. .

 Creep into thy narrow bed, / Creep, and let no more be said!

 Crossing the stripling Thames at Bablock-hithe, / Trailing in the cool stream thy fingers wet, / As the slow punt swings round.

 Culture being a pursuit of our total perfection by means of getting to know, on all the matters which most concern us, the best which has been thought and said in the world.

 Culture is properly described as the love of perfection; it is a study of perfection.

 Culture is the passion for sweetness and light, and (what is more) the passion for making them prevail.

 Culture is to know the best that has been said and thought in the world

 Culture is. . . properly described not as having its origin in curiosity, but as having its origin in the love of perfection; it is a study of perfection.

 Culture, the acquainting ourselves with the best that has been known and said in the world, and thus with the history of the human spirit.

 Culture, then, is a study of perfection, and perfection which insists on becoming something rather than in having something, in an inward condition of the mind and spirit, not in an outward set of circumstances.

 Eyes too expressive to be blue, / Too lovely to be grey.

 Force and right are the governors of this world; force till right is ready.
