Famous quotes containing the words living and/or museums:

    “The monument of death will outlast the memory of the dead. The Pyramids do not tell the tale which was confided to them; the living fact commemorates itself.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Museums are just a lot of lies, and the people who make art their business are mostly imposters.... We have infected the pictures in museums with all our stupidities, all our mistakes, all our poverty of spirit. We have turned them into petty and ridiculous things.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
