Famous quotes containing the word art:

    O mischief, thou art swift
    To enter in the thoughts of desperate men!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    O thou weed!
    Who art so lovely fair and smell’st so sweet
    That the sense aches at thee, would thou hadst ne’er been born!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The history of modern art is also the history of the progressive loss of art’s audience. Art has increasingly become the concern of the artist and the bafflement of the public.
    Henry Geldzahler (1935–1994)
