River Division

Famous quotes containing the words river and/or division:

    the folk-lore
    Of each of the senses; call it, again and again,
    The river that flows nowhere, like a sea.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The division between the useful arts and the fine arts must not be understood in too absolute a manner. In the humblest work of the craftsmen, if art is there, there is a concern for beauty, through a kind of indirect repercussion that the requirements of the creativity of the spirit exercise upon the production of an object to serve human needs.
    Jacques Maritain (1882–1973)
