It is not just bookstores and libraries that are disappearing but museums, theaters, performing arts centers, art and music schools— all those places where I felt at home have joined the list of endangered species. The San Francisco Chronicle, the ...
Business art is the step that comes after art. I started as a commercial artist, and I want to finish as a business artist. Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. During the hippie era people put down the idea of business. They�...
I think that the first part of the art is making the art, but when art really becomes art is when it belongs to somebody else.
Thou art imperishable. Thou art changeless reality. Thou art the source of life.
We need to make sure that there's art in the school. Why? Why should art be in the school? Because if art isn't in a school, then a guy like Steve Jobs doesn't get a chance to really express himself because in order for art to meet technology, you ne...
Before there were any sort of 'recordings' there was performance. If we are devolved back to the Stone Age tomorrow, there will be performance.
If I had a bad performance in a particular leotard, I threw it in the trash.

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.
Living together is an art. It's a patient art, it's a beautiful art, it's fascinating.
In peace, continue your art; in war, continue your art; in freedom, continue your art; in captivity, continue your art!
Nature and art: The material and the workmanship. There is no beauty unaided, no excellence that does not sink to the barbarous, unless saved by art: It redeems the bad and perfects the good. Because nature commonly forsakes us at her best, take refu...
Thought and language are to the artist instruments of an art. Vice and virtue are the artist’s materials for an art. From the point of view of form, the type of all the arts is the art of the musician. From the point of view of feelings, the actor�...
I can consider not only great art, but the context in which that art has been created. I can consider the people who paid a price for that art to be created and whether or not I want to appreciate that art on their backs.
I love the art world, I love art galleries, I love what it means - I love art.
