Maude Meagher quotes:
-

-

-
creative thought seems prone to flower in symbols before it ripens to fruit.
-

-
Civilization has developed executive powers far beyond its understanding.
-
Dreams are only the image of outward things shown on an inward mirror. But the mirror is the soul's enclosing darkness.
-
