Famous quotes containing the word sculpture:

    “Writing is not like painting where you add. It is not what you put on the canvas that the reader sees. Writing is more like a sculpture where you remove, you eliminate in order to make the work visible. Even those pages you remove somehow remain.”
    —Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
