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)
