Famous quotes containing the words artist and/or social:
“An artist is forced by others to paint out of his own free will.”
—Willem De Kooning (b. 1904)
“... the idea of a classless society is ... a disastrous mirage which cannot be maintained without tyranny of the few over the many. It is even more pernicious culturally than politically, not because the monolithic state forces the party line upon its intellectuals and artists, but because it has no social patterns to reflect.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
