Famous quotes containing the words art and/or portal:
““Art” is an invention of aesthetics, which in turn is an invention of philosophers.... What we call art is a game.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
“Some sepulcher, remote, alone,
Against whose portal she hath thrown,
In childhood, many an idle stone—
Some tomb from out whose sounding door
She ne’er shall force an echo more,
Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
It was the dead who groaned within.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
