Famous quotes containing the word art:

    The art of being a slave is to rule one’s master.
    Diogenes of Sinope (c. 410–c. 320 B.C.)

    Now I want
    Spirits to enforce, art to enchant,
    And my ending is despair,
    Unless I be relieved by prayer,
    Which pierces so that it assaults
    Mercy itself, and frees all faults.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Farewell! thou art too dear for my possessing,
    And like enough thou know’st thy estimate:
    The charter of thy worth gives thee releasing;
    My bonds in thee are all determinate.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
