Famous quotes containing the word art:

    The finest works of art are those in which there is the least matter. The closer expression comes to thought, the more the word clings to the idea and disappears, the more beautiful the work of art.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    Blow, blow, thou winter wind!
    Thou art not so unkind
    As man’s ingratitude;
    Thy tooth is not so keen
    Because thou art not seen,
    Although thy breath be rude.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
