Famous quotes containing the word modern:

    “The public history of modern art is the story of conventional people not knowing what they are dealing with.”
    —Robert Motherwell (1915–1991)

    “In the deeper layers of the modern consciousness ... every attempt to succeed is an act of aggression, leaving one alone and guilty and defenseless among enemies: one is punished for success. This is our intolerable dilemma: that failure is a kind of death and success is evil and dangerous, is—ultimately—impossible.”
    —Robert Warshow (1917–1955)
