Famous quotes containing the words american and/or art:

    “Experience cannot be transferred. We may give wise advice, but we cannot give wisdom to follow it.”
    —H., U.S. women’s magazine contributor. American Ladies Magazine, pp. 230-3 (May 1828)

    “... in the fierce competition of modern society the only class left in the country possessing leisure is that of women supported in easy circumstances by husband or father, and it is to this class we must look for the maintenance of cultivated and refined tastes, for that value and pursuit of knowledge and of art for their own sakes which can alone save society from degenerating into a huge machine for making money, and gratifying the love of sensual luxury.”
    —Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
