Famous quotes containing the words approach, based, paint and/or styles:

    The nearer people approach old age the closer they return to a semblance of childhood, until the time comes for them to depart this life, again like children, neither tired of living nor aware of death.
    Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)

    Italy is such a delightful place to live in if you happen to be a man. There one may enjoy that exquisite luxury of Socialism—that true Socialism which is based not on equality of income or character, but on the equality of manners.

    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Eschew the monumental. Shun the Epic. All the guys who can paint great big pictures can paint great small ones.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    There are only two styles of portrait painting; the serious and the smirk.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
