Lay Persons

Famous quotes containing the words lay and/or persons:

    The weariest and most loathèd worldly life,
    That age, ache, penury and imprisonment
    Can lay on nature is a paradise,
    To what we fear of death.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    One is never satisfied with a portrait of persons whom one knows. That is why I have always pitied portraitists. One demands so seldom of others the impossible, but demands just that of the portraitists.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
