Famous quotes containing the words gallery of, gallery and/or work:

    “I should like to have seen a gallery of coronation beauties, at Westminster Abbey, confronted for a moment by this band of Island girls; their stiffness, formality, and affectation contrasted with the artless vivacity and unconcealed natural graces of these savage maidens. It would be the Venus de’ Medici placed beside a milliner’s doll.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Each morning the manager of this gallery substituted some new picture, distinguished by more brilliant or harmonious coloring, for the old upon the walls.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “We’d like to fight but we fear defeat,
    We’d like to work but we’re feeling too weak,
    We’d like to be sick but we’d get the sack,
    We’d like to behave, we’d like to believe,
    We’d like to love, but we’ve lost the knack.”
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
