Famous quotes containing the words technical, classical and/or times:

    “The best work of artists in any age is the work of innocence liberated by technical knowledge. The laboratory experiments that led to the theory of pure color equipped the impressionists to paint nature as if it had only just been created.”
    —Nancy Hale (b. 1908)

    “Classical art, in a word, stands for form; romantic art for content. The romantic artist expects people to ask, What has he got to say? The classical artist expects them to ask, How does he say it?”
    —R.G. (Robin George)

    “There are times when parenthood seems nothing but feeding the mouth that bites you.”
    —Peter De Vries (b. 1910)
