Famous quotes containing the word art:

    ... [photographs] trade simultaneously on the prestige of art and the magic of the real.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    There is evidence that all too many people are approaching parenthood with a dangerous lack of knowledge and skill. The result is that many children are losing out on what ought to be an undeniable right—the right to have parents who know how to be good parents, parents skilled in the art of “parenting.”
