Famous quotes containing the words painting and and/or painting:
“In Holland, everyone is an expert in painting and in tulips.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“Talk to them about things they don’t know. Try to give them an inferiority complex. If the actress is beautiful, screw her. If she isn’t, present her with a valuable painting she will not understand. If they insist on being boring, kick their asses or twist their noses. And that’s about all there is to it.”
—John Huston (1906–1987)
