Famous quotes containing the words arts and/or culture:

    Most arts require long study and application; but the most useful art of all, that of pleasing, requires only the desire.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    ... there are some who, believing that all is for the best in the best of possible worlds, and that to-morrow is necessarily better than to-day, may think that if culture is a good thing we shall infallibly be found to have more of it that we had a generation since; and that if we can be shown not to have more of it, it can be shown not to be worth seeking.
    Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
