Famous quotes containing the word art:
“The art of newspaper paragraphing is to stroke a platitude until it purrs like an epigram.”

Wine given in season oft will benefit,
Which out of season injures.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
“Literary gentlemen, editors, and critics think that they know how to write, because they have studied grammar and rhetoric; but they are egregiously mistaken. The art of composition is as simple as the discharge of a bullet from a rifle, and its masterpieces imply an infinitely greater force behind them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
