Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or signs:
“Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it “the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul.” The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of “Artist.””
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
“Cows wandered through the streets.... Vegetables grew chiefly in cans, and stream-beds and cañons glittered with these omnipresent signs of civilization.”
—Administration in the State of Colo, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
