Famous quotes containing the words jail and/or branch:
“Opiate. An unlocked door in the prison of Identity. It leads into the jail yard.”

“When I am finishing a picture I hold some God-made object up to it—a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand—as a kind of final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there’s a clash between the two, it is bad art.”
—Marc Chagall (1889–1985)
