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)

    “Insurrection is an art, and like all arts has its own laws.”
    —Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    “As a man has no right to kill one of his children if it is diseased or insane, so a man who has made the gradual and conscious expression of his personality in literature the aim of his life, has no right to suppress himself any carefully considered work which seemed good enough when it was written. Suppression, if it is deserved, will come rapidly enough from the same causes that suppress the unworthy members of a man’s family.”
    —J.M. (John Millington)
