Famous quotes containing the words arts and, arts and/or literature:

    “A man must be clothed with society, or we shall feel a certain bareness and poverty, as of a displaced and unfurnished member. He is to be dressed in arts and institutions, as well as in body garments. Now and then a man exquisitely made can live alone, and must; but coop up most men and you undo them.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Note too that a faithful study of the liberal arts humanizes character and permits it not to be cruel.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “First literature came to refer only to itself, the literary theory.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
