Famous quotes containing the word artist:
“Being an artist means ceasing to take seriously that very serious person we are when we are not an artist.”
—José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
“Art is only a means to life, to the life more abundant. It is not in itself the life more abundant. It merely points the way, something which is overlooked not only by the public, but very often by the artist himself. In becoming an end it defeats itself.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“Something was still there, that something that distinguishes an artist from a performer: the revealing of self. Here I be. Not for long, but here I be. In sensing her mortality, we sensed our own.”
—Studs Terkel (b. 1912)
