Arp Table

Famous quotes containing the words arp and/or table:

    Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation.... Tooting, howling, screeching, booming, crashing, whistling, grinding, and trilling bolster his ego. His anxiety subsides. His inhuman void spreads monstrously like a gray vegetation.
    —Jean Arp (1887–1948)

    The one happiness is to shut one’s door upon a little room, with a table before one, and to create; to create life in that isolation from life.
    Eleonora Duse (1859–1924)
