Famous quotes containing the word disease:

    It is the disease of not listening, the malady of not marking,
    that I am troubled withal.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The artistic temperament is a disease that affects amateurs.... Artists of a large and wholesome vitality get rid of their art easily, as they breathe easily or perspire easily. But in artists of less force, the thing becomes a pressure, and produces a definite pain, which is called the artistic temperament.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
