Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “Artists have a double relationship towards nature: they are her master and her slave at the same time. They are her slave in so far as they must work with means of this world so as to be understood; her master in so far as they subject these means to their higher goals and make them subservient to them.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “Poets that lasting Marble seek
    Must carve in Latine or in Greek,
    We write in Sand, our Language grows,
    And like the Tide our work o’erflows.”
    —Edmund Waller (1606–1687)

    “A work of art is one through which the consciousness of the artist is able to give its emotions to anyone who is prepared to receive them. There is no such thing as bad art.”
    —Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
