Frost Point

Famous quotes containing the words frost and/or point:

    But now he brushed the shavings from his knee
    And stood the ax there on its horse’s hoof,
    Erect, but not without its waves, as when
    The snake stood up for evil in the Garden....
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    You should go to picture-galleries and museums of sculpture to be acted upon, and not to express or try to form your own perfectly futile opinion. It makes no difference to you or the world what you may think of any work of art. That is not the question; the point is how it affects you. The picture is the judge of your capacity, not you of its excellence; the world has long ago passed its judgment upon it, and now it is for the work to estimate you.
    Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)
