Famous quotes containing the words big and/or artists:
“But I died yesterday,
“Daddy,” I died,
swallowing the Nazi-Jap-animal
and it won’t get out
it keeps knocking at my eyes,
my big orphan eyes....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“For us artists there waits the joyous compromise through art with all that wounded or defeated us in daily life; in this way, not to evade destiny, as the ordinary people try to do, but to fulfil it in its true potential—the imagination.”
—Lawrence Durrell (1912–1990)
