Famous quotes containing the word artists:

    “The French Revolution gave birth to no artists but only to a great journalist, Desmoulins, and to an under-the-counter writer, Sade. The only poet of the times was the guillotine.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “Decade after decade, artists came to paint the light of Provincetown, and comparisons were made to the lagoons of Venice and the marshes of Holland, but then the summer ended and most of the painters left, and the long dingy undergarment of the gray New England winter, gray as the spirit of my mood, came down to visit.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “Women and egoistic artists entertain a feeling towards science that is something composed of envy and sentimentality.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
