Finnish Art Society

Famous quotes containing the words finnish, art and/or society:

    A conversation in English in Finnish and in French can not be held at the same time nor with indifference ever or after a time.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    Nature, hating art and pains,
    Baulks and baffles plotting brains;
    Casualty and Surprise
    Are the apples of her eyes;
    But she dearly loves the poor,
    And, by marvel of her own,
    Strikes the loud pretender down.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I am not what is called a civilized man, professor. I have done with society for reasons that seem good to me. Therefore I do not obey its laws.
    Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)
