Art Form

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or form:

“All art is a struggle to be, in a particular sort of way, virtuous.”
—Iris Murdoch (b. 1919)

“Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.”
—Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)
