Outer Bailey Wall

Famous quotes containing the words outer, bailey and/or wall:

    “When human beings have been fascinated by the contemplation of their own hearts, the more intricate biological pattern of the female has become a model for the artist, the mystic, and the saint. When mankind turns instead to what can be done, altered, built, invented, in the outer world, all natural properties of men, animals, or metals become handicaps to be altered rather than clues to be followed.”
    —Margaret Mead (1901–1978)

    “All that Swinging Sixties nonsense, we all thought it was passé at the time.”
    —David Bailey (b. 1938)

    “The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist’s way of scribbling “Kilroy was here” on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.”
    —William Faulkner (1897–1962)
