Comic Book Art

Famous quotes containing the words comic, book and/or art:

“Wit is often concise and sparkling, compressed into an original pun or metaphor. Brevity is said to be its soul. Humor can be more leisurely, diffused through a whole story or picture which undertakes to show some of the comic aspects of life. What it devalues may be human nature in general, by showing that certain faults or weaknesses are universal. As such it is kinder and more philosophic than wit which focuses on a certain individual, class, or social group.”
—Thomas Munro (1897–1974)

“A book lives as long as it is unfathomed.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“The wealthy are always surrounded by hangers-on; science and art are as well.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
