Art and Politics Quotes

“We turn our eyes away from distance, we raise them in our home again, and there we see a prince whom his people loves, not in the mere sense of old-traditional allegiance to his family, no! of pure love for himself, for his ownest I. We love him because he is what he is, we love his pure virtue, his high sense of honour, his probity, his clemency. So from a full a heart I cry aloud in joy: -
That is the man of Providence.”
― Richard Wagner, Art and Politics
