It also made sense to Keats. Maybe you're a Romantic at heart. 
`Beauty is truth, truth beauty, -- that is all
          Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.'

    I just noticed your signature quote
    Ode on a Grecian Urn
    links to a page on the Dundee University (Scotland) website, which is where I studied art, and currently take Saturday classes in Chinese.
    coincidence?

    update:Thanks ronald - I knew it wasn't a signature - don't know why i wrote that!

      Small world (wide web). That's not really my sig -- it's just a reference to the poem where those two lines come from, courtesy of Google. I'm not affiliated with Dundee University or the web site.

      Still, it is a funny coincidence!

    Maybe it's because we're both artists.
    Romantic? I do try, but usually fail.
