Crayons/art

Famous quotes containing the words crayons and/or art:

“With crayons the child draws a rigid house
and a winding pathway. Then the child
puts in a man with buttons like tears”
—Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

“Blind mouths! that scarce themselves know how to hold
A sheephook, or have learn’d ought else the least
That to the faithful herdman’s art belongs!
What recks it them? What need they? They are sped.
And when they list their lean and flashy songs
Grate on their scrannel pipes of wretched straw,
The hungry sheep look up, and are not fed,”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
