Painted Cave

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or cave:

“When he painted a road, the roadmakers were there in his imagination. When he painted the turned earth of a ploughed field, the gesture of the blade turning the earth was included in his own act. Wherever he looked he saw the labour of existence; and this labour, recognized as such, was what constituted reality for him.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)

“In such an armor he may rise and raid
The dark cave after midnight, unafraid....”
