Famous quotes containing the word art:
“Art is identical with a state of capacity to make, involving a true course of reasoning. All art is concerned with coming into being ... for art is concerned neither with things that are, or come into being, by necessity, nor with things that do so in accordance with nature.”
—Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
“The principal rule of art is to please and to move. All the other rules were created to achieve this first one.”
—Jean Racine (1639–1699)
“Admiration for a quality or an art can be so strong that it deters us from striving to possess it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
