Famous quotes containing the words special and/or craft:

    “Here in the U.S., culture is not that delicious panacea which we Europeans consume in a sacramental mental space and which has its own special columns in the newspapers—and in people’s minds. Culture is space, speed, cinema, technology. This culture is authentic, if anything can be said to be authentic.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “To clothe the fiery thought
    In simple words succeeds,
    For still the craft of genius is
    To mask a king in weeds.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
