Famous quotes containing the words gallery of, gallery, life and/or art:

    “I never can pass by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York without thinking of it not as a gallery of living portraits but as a cemetery of tax-deductible wealth.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    “To a person uninstructed in natural history, his country or sea-side stroll is a walk through a gallery filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall. Teach him something of natural history, and you place in his hands a catalogue of those which are worth turning round.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “your bones,
    round rulers, round nudgers, round poles,
    numb nubkins, the sword of sugar.
    I feel the skull, Mr. Skeleton, living its
    own life in its own skin.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Making a logging-road in the Maine woods is called “swamping” it, and they who do the work are called “swampers.” I now perceived the fitness of the term. This was the most perfectly swamped of all the roads I ever saw. Nature must have coöperated with art here.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
