Dawn Tells

Famous quotes containing the words dawn and/or tells:

    “The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St. Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    “Painting is a blind man’s profession. He paints not what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
