Masters, I have to tell a tale of woe, A tale of folly and of wasted life, Hope against hope, the bitter dregs of strife, Ending, where all things end, in death at last.

Additional quotes by William Morris

Live on, for Love liveth, and earth shall be shaken By the wind of his wings on the triumphing morning, When the dead, and their deeds that die not shall awaken, And the world's tale shall sound in your trumpet of warning, And the sun smite the banner called Scorn of the Scorning, And dead pain ye shall trample, dead fruitless desire, As ye wend to pluck out the new world from the fire.

Ricchezza è quello che la Natura ci dà e quello che un uomo assennato può trarre dai suoi doni per farne un uso ragionevole. La luce del sole, l'aria fresca, l'incontaminato volto della Terra, e quanto abbisogni di cibo, vestiario e alloggio decenti; l'accumulo di conoscenze di ogni tipo, e il potere di diffonderle; i mezzi con cui gli uomini possono liberamente comunicare fra loro; le opere d'arte, la bellezza che l'uomo crea quanto è uomo nel senso più alto, animato da aspirazioni e premura per gli altri; tutte cose al servizio del piacere della gente, libere, degne di un uomo e incorrotte. Questa è la ricchezza.
