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)

    But sometimes everything I write
    with the threadbare art of my eye
    seems a snapshot,
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    O Rose, thou art sick!
    The invisible worm
    That flies in the night,
    In the howling storm,
    Has found out thy bed
    Of crimson joy:
    And his dark secret love
    Does thy life destroy.
    William Blake (1757–1827)
