Famous quotes containing the words arts and, arts and/or literature:

    “I won’t undertake war until I have tried all the arts and means of peace.”
    —François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    “Note too that a faithful study of the liberal arts humanizes character and permits it not to be cruel.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.”
    —Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
