Sinopsis
Excerpt from Library Notes
Matthew Hale. The eyes of critics, said Landor, whether in commending or carping, are both on one side, like a turbot's. Truth, as Humanity knows it, said Bulwer, is not what the schoolmen call it, one and indivisible it is like light, and splits not only into ele mentary colors, but into innumerable tints. Truth with Raphael'is not the same as truth with Titian truth with Shakespeare is not the same as truth with Milton truth with St. Xavier is not the same as truth with Luther; truth with Pitt is not the same as truth with Fox. Each man takes from life his favorite truth, as each man takes from light his favorite color.

Excerpt from Library Notes
It was well said by some one that "in every object there is an inexhaustible meaning; the eye sees in it what the eye brings means of seeing." "Each one sees what he carries in his heart," said Goethe. "You will find poetry nowhere," said Joubert, "unless you bring some with you." "Those who would see or feel the truth of the anatomy in the marble must bring their knowledge with them." "Don't you think that statue indecent?" said Boswell to Johnson. "No, sir," was the reply, "but your remark is." Once, we are told by Hazlitt, when a pedantic coxcomb was crying up Raphael to the skies, Northcote could not help saying, "If there was nothing in Raphael but what you can see in him, we should not now have been talking of him." Douglas Jerrold, it is said, disliked the theatre behind the scenes, and seldom went there save to witness a rehearsal. He would generally attend on the first night of the perform ance of his piece, but he seldom saw the same piece twice. His idea, as realized, generally disgusted him. He saw it with all the delicate touches rubbed away, - a shadow, or a vulgar caricature. His quarrels with actors were incessant, because they would take their idea and not his idea of a part.
