Famous quotes containing the words roses and/or art:

    the roses fall
    victim to a weakness of the heart.

    We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.
