Schools Teach

Famous quotes containing the words schools and/or teach:

    “The schools begin with what they call the elements, and where do they end?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Technique is really personality. That is the reason why the artist cannot teach it, why the pupil cannot learn it, and why the aesthetic critic can understand it. To the great poet, there is only one method of music—his own. To the great painter, there is only one manner of painting—that which he himself employs. The aesthetic critic, and the aesthetic critic alone, can appreciate all forms and all modes. It is to him that Art makes her appeal.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
