Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “The work of art, just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning, seems to me devoid of value if it does not offer the hardness, the rigidity, the regularity, the luster on every interior and exterior facet, of the crystal.”
    —André Breton (1896–1966)

    “The country needs the political work of women to-day as much as it has ever needed woman in any other work at any other time.”
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    “Just as a chemist “isolates” a substance from contaminations that distort his view of its nature and effects, so the work of art purifies significant appearance. It presents abstract themes in their generality, but not reduced to diagrams.”
    —Rudolf Arnheim (b. 1904)
