Sir Thomas Miller

Famous quotes containing the words sir, thomas and/or miller:

    Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
    Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
    Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
    All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
    All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
    Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.
    Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)

    Thy sharp repulse, that pricketh ay so sore,
    Hath taught me to set in trifles no store,
    and scape forth, since liberty is lever.
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    An artist is always alone—if he is an artist. No, what the artist needs is loneliness.
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)
