Famous quotes containing the words big and/or artists:
“If our caricaturists do not hate their enemies, it is not because they are too big to hate them, but because their enemies are not big enough to hate.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (18741936)
“of artists dying in childbirth, wise-women charred at the stake,
centuries of books unwritten piled behind these shelves;
and we still have to stare into the absence
of men who would not, women who could not, speak
to our lifethis still unexcavated hole
called civilization, this act of translation, this half-world.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
