Famous quotes containing the words center and/or arts:

    “Louise Bryant: I’m sorry if you don’t believe in mutual independence and free love and respect.
    Eugene O’Neill: Don’t give me a lot of parlor socialism that you learned in the village. If you were mine, I wouldn’t share you with anybody or anything. It would be just you and me. You’d be at the center of it all. You know it would feel a lot more like love than being left alone with your work.”
    —Warren Beatty (b. 1937)

    “Hardly any human being is capable of pursuing two professions or two arts rightly.”
    —Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
