Declaring Side

Famous quotes containing the words declaring and/or side:

    Composed in the Tower before his execution
    These moving verses, and being brought at that time
    Painfully to the stake, submitted, declaring thus:
    “I implore my God to witness that I have made no crime.”
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

    To love something as an artist ... means to be shaken not by its ultimate value or lack of value, but by a side of it that suddenly opens up. Where art has value it shows things that few have seen. It’s conquering, not pacifying.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)
