Oh, God, make small The old star-eaten blanket of the sky, That I may fold it round me and in comfort lie. (Thomas Ernest Hulme (1883-1917), British critic, poet, philosopher. The Embankment (l. 5-7). . . Oxford Book of Short Poems, The. P. J. Kavanagh and James Michie, eds. Oxford University Press.)
Once, in finesse of fiddles found I ecstasy, (Thomas Ernest Hulme (1883-1917), British critic, poet, philosopher. The Embankment (l. 1). . . Oxford Book of Short Poems, The. P. J. Kavanagh and James Michie, eds. Oxford University Press.)
Put shortly, these are the two views, then. One, that man is intrinsically good, spoilt by circumstance; and the other that he is intrinsically limited, but disciplined by order and tradition to something fairly decent. To the one party man's nature is like a well, to the other like a bucket. The view which regards him like a well, a reservoir full of possibilities, I call the romantic; the one which regards him as a very finite and fixed creature, I call the classical. (Thomas Ernest Hulme (1883-1917), British critic, philosopher. "Romanticism and Classicism," Speculations: Essays on Humanism and the Philosophy of Art, Harcourt Brace (1924).)
