Famous quotes containing the words martial, arts and/or professional:

    “Lie lightly on her, turf and dew:
    She put so little weight on you.”
    —Marcus Valerius Martial (c. 40–104)

    “The arts are not just instantaneous pleasure—if you don’t like it, the artist is wrong. I belong to the generation which says if you don’t like it, you don’t understand and you ought to find out.”
    —John Drummond (b. 1934)

    “The relationship between mother and professional has not been a partnership in which both work together on behalf of the child, in which the expert helps the mother achieve her own goals for her child. Instead, professionals often behave as if they alone are advocates for the child; as if they are the guardians of the child’s needs; as if the mother left to her own devices will surely damage the child and only the professional can rescue him.”
    —Elaine Heffner (20th century)
