To say to it: Learn that the mind works best when allowed to work naturally; learn to do what your problem suggests when you have reduced it to its simplest terms; you will thus find that all problems, however complex, take on a simplicity you had not dreamed of; accept this simplicity boldly, and with confidence, do not lose your nerve and run away from it, or you are lost, for you are here at the point men so heedlessly call genius as though it were necessarily rare; for you are here at the point no living brain can surpass in essence, the point all truly great minds seek the point of vital simplicity the point of view which so illuminates the mind that the art of expression becomes spontaneous, powerful, and unerring, and achievement a certainty.
With returning calm, a flash of the truth illuminates her, to the extent that she suspects in the unnatural developments of the last hour the work of sorcery.
Does this Play succeed in giving so extremely definite and varied an impression of the characters that it is chiefly notable for that?

'He that hath seen Christ hath seen the Father, and he that hath seen the Father in Christ hath seen the man Christ, as none see Him who are blind to the incarnate deity which illuminates the manhood in which it dwells. But we have to note also the varying appearance of the pillar according to need.

With similar flowery compliments he beguiled the whole way, and Charteris noted with admiration that he did not once repeat his metaphors.
"Let as adore the supremacy of that divine Sun, the Godhead, who illuminates all, who recreates all, from whom all proceed, to whom all must return, whom we invoke to direct our understandings aright in our progress towards His holy seat.
And to give this a more terrifying and supernatural character, a human skull, representing a death's head, with a pair of tibia for crossbones underneath, is fixed centrally and prominently against the wall. The same light that so faintly illuminates this paraphernalia of repulsive objects, also shines upon one that is pleasing this the figure of a young girl, with a face wonderfully fair.
The one light which illuminates the dark recesses of one's own heart, and makes us feel how dark they are, and how full of creeping unclean things, is the light of the love of God that shines in Jesus Christ, the light that shines from the Cross of Calvary.
Naville is rapidly becoming a model in the art of premeditated and self-controlled eloquence. There is another kind of eloquence that which seems inspired, which finds, discovers, and illuminates by bounds and flashes, which is born in the sight of the audience and transports it. Such is not Naville's kind. Is it better worth having? I do not know.
The woman of whom I told you! Anna St. Ives! You have seen the Venus de Medicis? Pshaw! Stone! Inanimate marble! But she! The very sight of her is the height of luxury! The pure blood is seen to circulate! Transparent is the complexion which it illuminates! And for symmetry, for motion, for grace, sculptor, painter, nor poet ever yet imagined such! Desire languishes to behold her!
