Famous quotes containing the word art:

    Never can the innate power of a work be hidden or locked away. A work of art can be forgotten by time; it can be forbidden and rejected but the elemental will always prevail over the ephemeral.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Without freedom, no art; art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others. But without freedom, no socialism either, except the socialism of the gallows.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    ... art transcends its limitations only by staying within them.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
