Art Forms

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or forms:

    I hold that it is true that dreams are faithful interpreters of our drives; but there is an art to sorting and understanding them.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    All ... forms of consensus about “great” books and “perennial” problems, once stabilized, tend to deteriorate eventually into something philistine. The real life of the mind is always at the frontiers of “what is already known.” Those great books don’t only need custodians and transmitters. To stay alive, they also need adversaries. The most interesting ideas are heresies.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
