Famous quotes containing the word art:
“New York has never learnt the art of growing old by playing on all its pasts. Its present invents itself, from hour to hour, in the act of throwing away its previous accomplishments and challenging the future. A city composed of paroxysmal places in monumental reliefs.”
—Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
“We hear the Secretary of State boasting of his brinkmanship—the art of bringing us to the edge of the abyss.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
“All great art is the work of the whole living creature, body and soul, and chiefly of the soul.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
