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

    “I too have arts and sorceries;
    Illusion dwells forever with the wave.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The textile and needlework arts of the world, primarily because they have been the work of women have been especially written out of art history. It is a male idea that to be “high” and “fine” both women and art should be beautiful, but not useful or functional.”
    —Patricia Mainardi (b. 1942)

    “In other countries, art and literature are left to a lot of shabby bums living in attics and feeding on booze and spaghetti, but in America the successful writer or picture-painter is indistinguishable from any other decent businessman.”
    —Sinclair Lewis (1885–1951)
