Famous quotes containing the word final:

    “The purpose of punishment is to improve those who do the punishing—that is the final recourse of those who support punishment.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Fine art, that exists for itself alone, is art in a final state of impotence. If nobody, including the artist, acknowledges art as a means of knowing the world, then art is relegated to a kind of rumpus room of the mind and the irresponsibility of the artist and the irrelevance of art to actual living becomes part and parcel of the practice of art.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    “The train rounds, bending to a scream,
    Taking the final level for the dive
    Under the river—”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)
