Famous quotes containing the words noted, works and/or artist:

    “God preaches,—a noted clergyman,—
    And the sermon is never long;
    So instead of getting to heaven at last,
    I’m going all along!”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “His character as one of the fathers of the English language would alone make his works important, even those which have little poetical merit. He was as simple as Wordsworth in preferring his homely but vigorous Saxon tongue, when it was neglected by the court, and had not yet attained to the dignity of a literature, and rendered a similar service to his country to that which Dante rendered to Italy.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Something was still there, that something that distinguishes an artist from a performer: the revealing of self. Here I be. Not for long, but here I be. In sensing her mortality, we sensed our own.”
    —Studs Terkel (b. 1912)
