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)

    Insurrection is an art, and like all arts has its own laws.
    Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    Philosophy, astronomy, and politics were marked at zero, I remember. Botany variable, geology profound as regards the mud stains from any region within fifty miles of town, chemistry eccentric, anatomy unsystematic, sensational literature and crime records unique, violin player, boxer, swordsman, lawyer, and self-poisoner by cocaine and tobacco.
    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
