The Object

Famous quotes containing the word object:

“The division between the useful arts and the fine arts must not be understood in too absolute a manner. In the humblest work of the craftsmen, if art is there, there is a concern for beauty, through a kind of indirect repercussion that the requirements of the creativity of the spirit exercise upon the production of an object to serve human needs.”
—Jacques Maritain (1882–1973)

“The object of convalescence ought to be to turn our attention to life: at other times, simply to our tasks!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
