Galbraith Work

Famous quotes containing the words galbraith and/or work:

“There is certainly no absolute standard of beauty. That precisely is what makes its pursuit so interesting.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

“Each work of art excludes the world, concentrates attention on itself. For the time it is the only thing worth doing—to do just that; be it a sonnet, a statue, a landscape, an outline head of Caesar, or an oration. Presently we return to the sight of another that globes itself into a whole as did the first, for example, a beautiful garden; and nothing seems worth doing in life but laying out a garden.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
