Famous quotes containing the word art:

    —Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    “To fill the hour,—that is happiness; to fill the hour, and leave no crevice for a repentance or an approval. We live amid surfaces, and the true art of life is to skate well on them.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The English public, as a mass, takes no interest in a work of art until it is told that the work in question is immoral.”
