Richard Allan

Famous quotes containing the words richard and/or allan:

    When a man of genius is denied of his great love, he goes mad. His brain, instead of being clear to do his work, is tortured, so he begins to think of torture. Torture for those who have tortured him.
    David Boehm, and Louis Friedlander. Dr. Richard Vollin (Bela Lugosi)

    To see distinctly the machinery—the wheels and pinions—of any work of Art is, unquestionably, of itself, a pleasure, but one which we are able to enjoy only just in proportion as we do not enjoy the legitimate effect designed by the artist.
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
