The web, then, or the pattern, a web at once sensuous and logical, an elegant and pregnant texture: that is style, that is the foundation of the art of literature.
Robert Louis Stevenson
I don't watch television, I think it destroys the art of talking about oneself.
Stephen Fry
For his heart was in his work, and the heart giveth grace unto every art.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Resolve and thou art free.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The counterfeit and counterpart of Nature is reproduced in art.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly.
Aldous Huxley
Perhaps it's good for one to suffer. Can an artist do anything if he's happy? Would he ever want to do anything? What is art, after all, but a protest against the horrible inclemency of life?
Aldous Huxley
Europe is so well gardened that it resembles a work of art, a scientific theory, a neat metaphysical system. Man has re-created Europe in his own image.
Aldous Huxley
It's clever, but is it Art?
Rudyard Kipling
What other people may find in poetry or art museums, I find in the flight of a good drive.
Arnold Palmer
And the first rude sketch that the world had seen was joy to his mighty heart, till the Devil whispered behind the leaves "It's pretty, but is it Art?"
Rudyard Kipling
The knowledge of God is the cause of things. For the knowledge of God is to all creatures what the knowledge of the artificer is to things made by his art.
Thomas Aquinas
The basis of art is truth, both in matter and in mode.
Flannery O'Connor
The excellency of every art is its intensity, capable of making all disagreeable evaporate.
John Keats
Religion is essentially the art and the theory of the remaking of man. Man is not a finished creation.
Edmund Burke
Poetry is the art of substantiating shadows, and of lending existence to nothing.
Edmund Burke
The art of interpretation is not to play what is written.
Pablo Casals
I think most of the people involved in any art always secretly wonder whether they are really there because they're good or there because they're lucky.
Katharine Hepburn
The best part of the art of living is to know how to grow old gracefully.
Eric Hoffer
O, thou art fairer than the evening air clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
Christopher Marlowe
