I'm a certifiable quote junkie. I love quotes and hard to believe they always don't have to be movie or pop culture either. They just have to be moving and insightful. I was write a friend not to long ago and i tried to fish through a book of quotations that i have to give her some inspiration. We all need some inspiration from time to time and i stumbled upon the topic of art. Since that is something that's near and dear to me i thought i would share some of those thoughts with you.
the object of art is to give life shape - Jean Anouilh
art is a jealous mistress - Ralph Waldo Emerson
All art is autobiographical; the pearl is the oyster's autobiography - Federico Fellini
Art does not reproduce the visible; rather, it makes visible - Paul Kee
A work of art has no importance whatever to society. it is only important to the individual - Vladimir Nabokov
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril - Oscar Wilde
