gross


- adjective
- grosseiro

EN This was the call of life to his soul not the dull gross voice of the world of duties and despair, not the inhuman voice that had called him to the pale service of the altar.
PT Era esse o apelo que a vida dirigia à sua alma e não a monótona e grosseira voz do mundo dos deveres e das desesperanças, não a voz inumana que o convidara outrora para o serviço incolor do altar.

- bruto

EN To speak of these things and to try to understand their nature and, having understood it, to try slowly and humbly and constantly to express, to press out again, from the gross earth or what it brings forth, from sound and shape and colour which are the prison gates of our soul, an image of the beauty we have come to understand -- that is art.
PT Falar destas coisas, procurar compreender a sua natureza, e depois, tendo-a compreendido, procurar lentamente, humildemente, fielmente, exprimir, extrair de novo, da terra bruta ou do que ela nos fornece _ sons, formas, cores, que são as portas da prisão da alma _ uma imagem desta beleza que chegámos a compreender _ eis o que vem a ser a arte.
