Famous quotes containing the words influence on, influence and/or art:

    I am not sure but I should betake myself in extremities to the liberal divinities of Greece, rather than to my country’s God. Jehovah, though with us he has acquired new attributes, is more absolute and unapproachable, but hardly more divine, than Jove. He is not so much of a gentleman, not so gracious and catholic, he does not exert so intimate and genial an influence on nature, as many a god of the Greeks.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    You can never really live anyone else’s life, not even your child’s. The influence you exert is through your own life, and what you’ve become yourself.
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)

    First-born, for whom by day and night I yearn,
    Balanced and just are all of God’s decrees;
    Thou art avenged, my first-born, sleep in peace!”
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
