Famous quotes containing the words neighborhood, arts and/or center:
“Almost everybody in the neighborhood had “troubles,” frankly localized and specified; but only the chosen had “complications.” To have them was in itself a distinction, though it was also, in most cases, a death warrant. People struggled on for years with “troubles,” but they almost always succumbed to “complications.””
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
“Most arts require long study and application; but the most useful art of all, that of pleasing, requires only the desire.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“Against the Word the unstilled world still whirled
About the center of the silent Word.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
