Famous quotes containing the word domesticate:
“I now require this of all pictures, that they domesticate me, not that they dazzle me. Pictures must not be too picturesque. Nothing astonishes men so much as common-sense and plain dealing. All great actions have been simple, and all great pictures are.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“After a moment of shrinking back, we domesticate the grotesque.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
