Famous quotes containing the word artists:

    “The attorneys defending a criminal are rarely artists enough to turn the beautiful ghastliness of his deed to his advantage.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “The artistic temperament is a disease that affects amateurs.... Artists of a large and wholesome vitality get rid of their art easily, as they breathe easily or perspire easily. But in artists of less force, the thing becomes a pressure, and produces a definite pain, which is called the artistic temperament.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    “Modern conquerors can kill, but do not seem to be able to create. Artists know how to create but cannot really kill. Murderers are only very exceptionally found among artists.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
