Famous quotes containing the words art and/or market:

    The art of letters will come to an end before A.D. 2000.... I shall survive as a curiosity.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    Talk of a divinity in man! Look at the teamster on the highway, wending to market by day or night; does any divinity stir within him? His highest duty to fodder and water his horses! What is his destiny to him compared with the shipping interests?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
