Famous quotes containing the words art and and/or art:

    “American thinking, when it concerns itself with beautiful letters as when it concerns itself with religious dogma or political theory, is extraordinarily timid and superficial ... [I]t evades the genuinely serious problems of art and life as if they were stringently taboo ... [T]he outward virtues it undoubtedly shows are always the virtues, not of profundity, not of courage, not of originality, but merely those of an emasculated and often very trashy dilettantism.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “How dost, my boy? Art cold?
    I am cold myself. Where is this straw, good fellow?
    The art of our necessities is strange
    And can make vile things precious.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
