Famous quotes containing the word art:

    “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)

    “Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “There is no more sombre enemy of good art than the pram in the hall.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
