Famous quotes containing the word artists:

    “As artists they’re rot, but as providers they’re oil wells; they gush. Norris said she never wrote a story unless it was fun to do. I understand Ferber whistles at her typewriter. And there was that poor sucker Flaubert rolling around on his floor for three days looking for the right word.”
    —Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    “If the man who paints only the tree, or flower, or other surface he sees before him were an artist, the king of artists would be the photographer. It is for the artist to do something beyond this: in portrait painting to put on canvas something more than the face the model wears for that one day; to paint the man, in short, as well as his features.”
    —James Mcneill Whistler (1834–1903)

    “... artists were intended to be an ornament to society. As a society in themselves they are unthinkable.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
