Famous quotes containing the words artists and/or educators:

    In dealings with scholars and artists we are apt to miscalculate in opposite directions: behind a remarkable scholar we sometimes, and not infrequently, find a mediocre man, and behind a mediocre artist, fairly often—a very remarkable man.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The great want of our race is perfect educators to train new-born minds, who are infallible teachers of what is right and true.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
