History Paintings

Famous quotes containing the words history and/or paintings:

    The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.
    Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)

    A thousand moral paintings I can show
    That shall demonstrate these quick blows of Fortune’s
    More pregnantly than words.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
