Beauty Quote by J. M. W. Turner

“I have no secret but hard work. This is a secret that many never learn, and they don't succeed because they don't learn it. Labor is the genius that changes the world from ugliness to beauty, and the great curse to a great blessing.” quote by J. M. W. Turner — Download Open image
