More quotes by William Morris
The wind is not helpless for any man's need, Nor falleth the rain but for thistle and weed.
William Morris
I have said as much as that the aim of art was to destroy the curse of labour by making work the pleasurable satisfaction of our impulse towards energy, and giving to that energy hope of producing something worth its exercise.
William Morris
There is no excuse for doing anything which is not strikingly beautiful.
William Morris
I think the thing that impressed me is (AT&T CEO Michael) Armstrong's strategic vision and the fact that he's got John Malone (TCI's chairman) to go along. There's a real commitment to build a new AT&T.
William Morris
No pattern should be without some sort of meaning.
William Morris
That talk of inspiration is sheer nonsense there is no such thing. It is a mere matter of craftsmanship.
William Morris
The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life.
William Morris
I do not want art for a few any more than education for a few, or freedom for a few.
William Morris
Art made by the people for the people, as a joy to the maker and the user.
William Morris
Architecture would lead us to all the arts, as it did with earlier mean: but if we despise it and take no note of how we are housed, the other arts will have a hard time of it indeed.
William Morris
Nothing should be made by man's labour which is not worth making, or which must be made by labour degrading to the makers.
William Morris
It is the childlike part of us that produces works of the imagination. When we were children time passed so slow with us that we seemed to have time for everything.
William Morris
My work is the embodiment of dreams in one form or another.
William Morris
If a chap can't compose an epic poem while he's weaving tapestry, he had better shut up, he'll never do any good at all.
William Morris
Slayer of the winter, art thou here again? O welcome, thou that bring'st the summer nigh! The bitter wind makes not the victory vain. Nor will we mock thee for thy faint blue sky.
William Morris
Another thing much too commonly seen, is an aberration of the human mind which otherwise I should have been ashamed to warn you of. It is technically called carpet-gardening. Need I explain it further? I had rather not, for when I think of it, even when I am quite alone, I blush with shame at the thought.
William Morris
If i were asked to say what is at once the most important production of Art and the thing most to be longed for, I should answer, A beautiful House.
William Morris
There is no single policy to which one can point and say - this built the Morris business. I should think I must have made not less than one thousand decisions in each of the last ten years. The success of a business is the result of the proportion of right decisions by the executive in charge.
William Morris
And the deeds that ye do upon this earth, it is for fellowship's sake that ye do them.
William Morris
Earth, left silent by the wind of night,Seems shrunken 'neath the gray unmeasured height.
