Famous quotes containing the word art:

    How dost, my boy? Art cold?
    I am cold myself. Where is this straw, good fellow?
    The art of our necessities is strange
    And can make vile things precious.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Unless we do more than simply learn the trade of our time, we are but apprentices, and not yet masters of the art of life.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    They tell me, Lucy, thou art dead,
    That all of thee we loved and cherished
    Has with thy summer roses perished;
    And left, as its young beauty fled,
    An ashen memory in its stead.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
