Most famous quotes by John Ruskin, the influential 19th-century English art critic, social thinker, and writer:

1.

“The highest reward for a person’s toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it.”


2.

“Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of intelligent effort.”


3.

“When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece.”


4.

“There is no wealth but life.”

(From his book Unto This Last)


5.

“To banish imperfection is to destroy expression, to check exertion, to paralyze vitality.”


6.

“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.”


7.

“Education does not mean teaching people to know what they do not know; it means teaching them to behave as they do not behave.”
