Arts Games

Famous quotes containing the words arts and/or games:

    Most arts require long study and application; but the most useful art of all, that of pleasing, requires only the desire.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.
    Philippe Ariés (20th century)
