Fine Arts

Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or arts:

“The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men, a pledge of sanity, and a protection from those perverse tendencies and gloomy insanities in which fine intellects sometimes lose themselves. A rogue alive to the ludicrous is still convertible. If that sense is lost, his fellow-men can do little for him.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Remove idleness from the world and soon the arts of Cupid would perish.”
—François Rabelais (1494–1553)
