Famous quotes containing the word artists:

    The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    The upshot was, my paintings must burn
    that English artists might finally learn.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The artistic temperament is a disease that affects amateurs.... Artists of a large and wholesome vitality get rid of their art easily, as they breathe easily or perspire easily. But in artists of less force, the thing becomes a pressure, and produces a definite pain, which is called the artistic temperament.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
