Famous quotes containing the word art:

    Architecture might be more sportive and varied if every man built his own house, but it would not be the art and science that we have made it; and while every woman prepares food for her own family, cooking can never rise beyond the level of the amateur’s work.
    Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)

    O wise and upright judge!
    How much more elder art thou than thy looks!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Just as all thought, and primarily that of non-signification, signifies something, so there is no art that has no signification.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
