Famous quotes containing the word painters:

    ““Were not all her life but storm,
    Would not painters paint a form
    Of such noble times ...””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The painters did very well by her;
    it is true, they missed never a line
    of the suave turn of the head
    or subtle shade of lowered eye-lid
    or eye-lids half-raised.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “They ought to put out the eyes of painters as they do goldfinches in order that they can sing better.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
