Famous quotes containing the word arts:

    “These arts open great gates of a future, promising to make the world plastic and to lift human life out of its beggary to a god- like ease and power.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “all the arts lose virtue
    Against the essential reality
    Of creatures going about their business among the equally
    Earnest elements of nature.”
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    “But here comes Generosity; giving—not to a decayed artist—but to the arts and sciences themselves.—See,—he builds ... whole schools and colleges for those who come after. Lord! how they will magnify his name!
    —One honest tear shed in private over the unfortunate, is worth them all.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
