Rosenberg

Famous quotes containing the word rosenberg:

    Poppies whose roots are in man’s veins
    Drop, and are ever dropping;
    But mine in my ear is safe,
    Just a little white with the dust.
    —Isaac Rosenberg (1890–1918)

    Kitsch is the daily art of our time, as the vase or the hymn was for earlier generations. For the sensibility it has that arbitrariness and importance which works take on when they are no longer noticeable elements of the environment. In America kitsch is Nature. The Rocky Mountains have resembled fake art for a century.
    —Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)

    For a shirt verminously busy
    Yon soldier tore from his throat, with oaths
    Godhead might shrink at, but not the lice.
    —Isaac Rosenberg (1890–1918)
