Art Gum

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or gum:

    In eloquence, the great triumphs of the art are when the orator is lifted above himself; when consciously he makes himself the mere tongue of the occasion and the hour, and says what cannot but be said. Hence the term abandonment, to describe the self-surrender of the orator.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The hunchback on the corner, with gum and shoelaces,
    Has his own wisdom and pleasures,
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)
