Recipient Object

Famous quotes containing the words recipient and/or object:

    He who bestows something great receives no gratitude; for in accepting it the recipient has already been weighed down too much.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to give on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quantity that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor. We may say that for the painter space is a luxury; for the sculptor it is a necessity.
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
