Famous quotes containing the words arts and and/or arts:
“A man must be clothed with society, or we shall feel a certain bareness and poverty, as of a displaced and unfurnished member. He is to be dressed in arts and institutions, as well as in body garments. Now and then a man exquisitely made can live alone, and must; but coop up most men and you undo them.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The arts are the salt of the earth; as salt relates to food, the arts relate to technology.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
