Irish Fairy&Folk Tales

ISBN: 9780679600947

Folk art is, indeed, the oldest of the aristocracies of thought, and

because it refuses what is passing and trivial, the merely clever and

pretty, as certainly as the vulgar and insincere, and because it has

gathered into itself the simplest and most unforgetable thoughts of the

generations, it is the soil where all great art is rooted. Wherever it

is spoken by the fireside, or sung by the roadside, or carved upon the

lintel, appreciation of the arts that a single mind gives unity and

design to, spreads quickly when its hour is come.
