Famous quotes containing the words des and/or arts:

    One difference between Nazi and Soviet camps was that in the latter dying was a slower process.
    —Terrence Des Pres (1939–1987)

    The arts are not just instantaneous pleasure—if you don’t like it, the artist is wrong. I belong to the generation which says if you don’t like it, you don’t understand and you ought to find out.
    John Drummond (b. 1934)
