For instance, I'm working
on a drawing of trees. The result
strongly conveys the idea of a procession,
a stately row of trees walking hither from far away
across the hills and which, after climbing
the last hill, suddenly stands before us
gigantic and threatening. Beautiful idea,
and it's there in the drawing, but not nearly as strong
as I feel it. I take comfort in the thought that a man will
probably never be able to visualize an idea as strongly as he feels it
himself
on a drawing of trees. The result

For instance, I'm working
on a drawing of trees.
00:00:04.912 --> 00:00:06.917
The result
strongly conveys the idea
00:00:06.992 --> 00:00:10.435
of a procession,
a stately row of trees
00:00:10.513 --> 00:00:13.754
walking hither from far away
across the hills
00:00:13.841 --> 00:00:16.516
and which, after climbing
the last hill,
00:00:16.593 --> 00:00:21.158
suddenly stands before us
gigantic and threatening.
00:00:21.235 --> 00:00:24.754
Beautiful idea,
and it's there in the drawing,
00:00:24.831 --> 00:00:28.878
but not nearly as strong
as I feel it.
00:00:28.954 --> 00:00:30.024
I take comfort in the thought
00:00:30.316 --> 00:00:32.001
that a man will
probably never be able
00:00:32.158 --> 00:00:33.519
to visualize an idea
00:00:33.596 --> 00:00:36.598
as strongly as he feels it
himself.
