No great art has ever been made without the artist having known danger.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Surely all art is the result of one's having been in danger, of having gone through an experience all the way to the end, where no one can go any further.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey cage.
H. L. Mencken
Art is the tree of life. Science is the tree of death.
William Blake
He who would do good to another must do it in Minute Particulars: general Good is the plea of the scoundrel, hypocrite, and flatterer, for Art and Science cannot exist but in minutely organized Particulars.
William Blake
Art can never exist without naked beauty displayed.
William Blake
The foundation of empire is art and science. Remove them or degrade them, and the empire is no more. Empire follows art and not vice versa as Englishmen suppose.
William Blake
I say that democracy can never prove itself beyond cavil, until it founds and luxuriantly grows its own forms of art, poems, schools, theology, displacing all that exists, or that has been produced anywhere in the past, under opposite influences.
Walt Whitman
The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.
Walt Whitman
The public history of modern art is the story of conventional people not knowing what they are dealing with.
Golda Meir
The art of Peace I practice has room for each of the world's eight million gods, and I cooperate with them all. The God of Peace is very great and enjoins all that is divine and enlightened in every land.
Morihei Ueshiba
There are no contests in the Art of Peace. A true warrior is invincible because he or she contests with nothing. Defeat means to defeat the mind of contention that we harbor within.
Morihei Ueshiba
One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.
Morihei Ueshiba
To injure an opponent is to injure yourself. To control aggression without inflicting injury in the Art of Peace.
Morihei Ueshiba
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Nature is the art of God.
Dante Alighieri
Art, as far as it is able, follows nature, as a pupil imitates his master; thus your art must be, as it were, God's grandchild.
Dante Alighieri
Art never improves, but... the material of art is never quite the same.
T. S. Eliot
A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.
George Bernard Shaw
Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.
Jonathan Swift
