Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or arts:
“To have gathered from the air a live tradition
or from a fine old eye the unconquered flame
This is not vanity.
Here error is all in the not done,
all in the diffidence that faltered . . .”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“In a very ugly and sensible age, the arts borrow, not from life, but from each other.”
