Famous quotes containing the word art:

    “Fear no more the frown o’ th’ great,
    Thou art past the tyrant’s stroke;
    Care no more to clothe and eat,
    To thee the reed is as the oak.
    The sceptre, learning, physic, must
    All follow this and come to dust.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
