Famous quotes containing the word wolfe:

    The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art ... is merely romantic fiction.... The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.

    Not even the most powerful organs of the press, including Time, Newsweek, and The New York Times, can discover a new artist or certify his work and make it stick.... They can only bring you the scores.

    Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note,
    As his corse to the rampart we hurried;
    —Charles Wolfe (1791–1823)
