Famous quotes containing the words left and/or ear:
“We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.”
—Book Of Common Prayer, The. Morning Prayer, General Confession, (1662)
“What is line? It is life. A line must live at each point along its course in such a way that the artists presence makes itself felt above that of the model.... With the writer, line takes precedence over form and content. It runs through the words he assembles. It strikes a continuous note unperceived by ear or eye. It is, in a way, the souls style, and if the line ceases to have a life of its own, if it only describes an arabesque, the soul is missing and the writing dies.”
—Jean Cocteau (18891963)
