Famous quotes containing the words canon and/or origins:
“Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we dont start measuring her limbs.”

Where the hinges let it move, were living things,

Blue bit of polished glass, glued there by time:
