Famous quotes containing the words outdoor, public and/or art:

    Close to the academy in this town they have erected a sort of gallows for the pupils to practice on. I thought that they might as well hang at once all who need to go through such exercises in so new a country, where there is nothing to hinder their living an outdoor life. Better omit Blair, and take the air.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Oh Death he is a little man,
    And he goes from do’ to do’ ...
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    To fill the hour,—that is happiness; to fill the hour, and leave no crevice for a repentance or an approval. We live amid surfaces, and the true art of life is to skate well on them.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
