Absolute Space

Famous quotes containing the words absolute and/or space:

    Point me out the happy man and I will point you out either egotism, selfishness, evil—or else an absolute ignorance.
    Graham Greene (1904–1991)

    The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
