Famous quotes containing the words arts and/or literature:
“Remove idleness from the world and soon the arts of Cupid would perish.”
—François Rabelais (1494–1553)
“Our leading men are not of much account and never have been, but the average of the people is immense, beyond all history. Sometimes I think in all departments, literature and art included, that will be the way our superiority will exhibit itself. We will not have great individuals or great leaders, but a great average bulk, unprecedentedly great.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
