Famous quotes containing the words liberal and/or arts:

“What more do I need to say? Conservative books sell. I can’t help it if liberal books don’t sell.”
—Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)

“I should say that the most prominent scientific men of our country, and perhaps of this age, are either serving the arts and not pure science, or are performing faithful but quite subordinate labors in particular departments. They make no steady and systematic approaches to the central fact.... There is wanting constant and accurate observation with enough of theory to direct and discipline it. But, above all, there is wanting genius.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
