Art Lessons

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or lessons:

    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)

    In the years of the Roman Republic, before the Christian era, Roman education was meant to produce those character traits that would make the ideal family man. Children were taught primarily to be good to their families. To revere gods, one’s parents, and the laws of the state were the primary lessons for Roman boys. Cicero described the goal of their child rearing as “self- control, combined with dutiful affection to parents, and kindliness to kindred.”
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)
