Famous quotes containing the words art and/or culture:
“I hold that it is true that dreams are faithful interpreters of our drives; but there is an art to sorting and understanding them.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
—Henry David David (1817–1862)
