Additional quotes by John Ruskin

As the art of life is learned, it will be found at last that all lovely things are also necessary; a wild flower by the wayside, tended corn, wild birds and creatures of the forest, as well as the tended cattle; because man doth not live by bread only.

Nothing is ever done beautifully which is done
in rival ship: or nobly, which is done in pride.

Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless.
