Famous quotes containing the words corn and/or art:

“Every New Englander might easily raise all his own breadstuffs in this land of rye and Indian corn, and not depend on distant and fluctuating markets for them.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“In the final analysis, “style” is art. And art is nothing more or less than various modes of stylized, dehumanized representation.”
