Canvas Design

Famous quotes containing the words canvas and/or design:

“The past is only so heroic as we see it. It is the canvas on which our idea of heroism is painted, and so, in one sense, the dim prospectus of our future field.”

For Christ’s sake not black—

Let it be weathered—like a farm wagon—”
