Famous quotes containing the words art and/or songs:
“A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
The air is full of children, statues, roofs
And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
