Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or division:
“Debussy—A pretty girl with one blue eye and one brown one.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“The division between the useful arts and the fine arts must not be understood in too absolute a manner. In the humblest work of the craftsmen, if art is there, there is a concern for beauty, through a kind of indirect repercussion that the requirements of the creativity of the spirit exercise upon the production of an object to serve human needs.”
—Jacques Maritain (1882–1973)
