Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or technique:

“A beautiful person among the Greeks, was thought to betray by this sign some secret favor of the immortal gods; and we can pardon pride, when a woman possesses such a figure that wherever she stands, or moves, or leaves a shadow on the wall, or sits for a portrait to the artist, she confers a favor on the world.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Technique is the test of sincerity. If a thing isn’t worth getting the technique to say, it is of inferior value.”
