Art Lessons

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or lessons:

    Fear no more the frown o’ th’ great,
    Thou art past the tyrant’s stroke;
    Care no more to clothe and eat,
    To thee the reed is as the oak.
    The sceptre, learning, physic, must
    All follow this and come to dust.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Sentimentalists ... adopt whatever merit is in good repute, and almost make it hateful with their praise. The warmer their expressions, the colder we feel.... Cure the drunkard, heal the insane, mollify the homicide, civilize the Pawnee, but what lessons can be devised for the debauchee of sentiment?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
