Joyce Cary
God is a character, a real and consistent being, or He is nothing. If God did a miracle He would deny His own nature and the universe would simply blow up, vanish, become nothing.
Joyce Cary
A friend of mine tells me that a Beethoven symphony can solve for him a problem of conduct. I've no doubt that it does so simply by giving him a sense of the tragedy and the greatness of human destiny, which makes his personal anxieties seem small, which throws them into a new proportion.
Joyce Cary
No doubt any connoisseur, any collector, some bored old millionaire when he shows off his treasures, is seeking in your praise the resurrection and the life.
Joyce Cary
Reality is a narrow little house which becomes a prison to those who can't get out of it.
Joyce Cary
The will is never free - it is always attached to an object, a purpose. It is simply the engine in the car - it can't steer
Joyce Cary
All art is bad, but modern art is the worst.
