Famous quotes containing the word appearance:

    What lies behind appearance is usually another appearance.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    The true, prescriptive artist strives after artistic truth; the lawless artist, following blind instinct, after an appearance of naturalness. The one leads to the highest peaks of art, the other to its lowest depths.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
