Keith

Famous quotes containing the word keith:

    Among the Very Rich you will never find a really generous man, even by accident. They may give their money away, but they will never give themselves away; they are egoistic, secretive, dry as old bones. To be smart enough to get all that money you must be dull enough to want it.
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    Art consists of limitation.... The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame.
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    The dignity of the artist lies in his duty of keeping awake the sense of wonder in the world. In this long vigil he often has to vary his methods of stimulation; but in this long vigil he is also himself striving against a continual tendency to sleep.
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
