Ant Performed

Famous quotes containing the words ant and/or performed:

“Turn on the prudent ant thy heedful eyes,
Observe her labours, sluggard, and be wise.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

“All in all, the creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act. This becomes even more obvious when posterity gives its final verdict and sometimes rehabilitates forgotten artists.”
—Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968)
