Famous quotes containing the words artists and/or united:

    Perhaps all artists were, in a sense, housewives: tenders of the earth household.
    Erica Jong (b. 1942)

    Why doesn’t the United States take over the monarchy and unite with England? England does have important assets. Naturally the longer you wait, the more they will dwindle. At least you could use it for a summer resort instead of Maine.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
