Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or practice:

    As they get more nuclear
    And more bigoted in reliance
    On the gospel of modern science ...
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Fine art, that exists for itself alone, is art in a final state of impotence. If nobody, including the artist, acknowledges art as a means of knowing the world, then art is relegated to a kind of rumpus room of the mind and the irresponsibility of the artist and the irrelevance of art to actual living becomes part and parcel of the practice of art.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)
