Famous quotes containing the word art:

    And what art thou, thou idol ceremony?
    What kind of god art thou, that suffer’st more
    Of mortal griefs than do thy worshippers?
    What are thy rents? What are thy comings-in?
    O ceremony, show me but thy worth.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
    Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
    Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
    And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The essential function of art is moral.... But a passionate, implicit morality, not didactic. A morality which changes the blood, rather than the mind.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
