Jacques Maritain Quotes:
Ocupation: Philosopher
Life: November 18, 1882 - April 28, 1973
Birthday: November 18
Death: April 28
Every work of art reaches man in his inner powers. It reaches him more profoundly and insidiously than any rational proposition, either cogent demonstration or sophistry. For it strikes him with two terrible weapons, Intuition and Beauty, and at the single root in him of all his energies... Art and Poetry awaken the dreams of man, and his longings, and reveal to him some of the abysses he has in himself.
