Famous quotes containing the word artists:

    “As artists they’re rot, but as providers they’re oil wells; they gush. Norris said she never wrote a story unless it was fun to do. I understand Ferber whistles at her typewriter. And there was that poor sucker Flaubert rolling around on his floor for three days looking for the right word.”
    —Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

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

    “You are always looking for already-felt emotions, just as you like to get an old pair of trousers back from the cleaners, which seem new when you don’t look too closely. Artists are cleaners, don’t let yourself be taken in by them. True modern works of art are made not by artists but quite simply by men.”
    —Francis Picabia (1878–1953)
