Yiddish Art Songs

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or songs:

    It is commonly supposed that the art of pleasing is a wonderful aid in the pursuit of fortune; but the art of being bored is infinitely more successful.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

    Dylan is to me the perfect symbol of the anti-artist in our society. He is against everything—the last resort of someone who doesn’t really want to change the world.... Dylan’s songs accept the world as it is.
    Ewan MacColl (1915–1989)
