Famous quotes containing the word art:

    Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art.... Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
    Andy Warhol (c. 1928–1987)

    Classical art, in a word, stands for form; romantic art for content. The romantic artist expects people to ask, What has he got to say? The classical artist expects them to ask, How does he say it?
    —R.G. (Robin George)

    Let the long contention cease! Geese are swans, and swans are geese. Let them have it how they will! Thou art tired; best be still.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
