I am interested in the art. I'm a professional woman.
Art is I; science is we.
There's a lot of art and comics and movies being paid homage to by game designers.
All sensitive people agree that there is a peculiar emotion provoked by works of art.
It is the mark of great art that its appeal is universal and eternal.
The forms of art are inexhaustible; but all lead by the same road of aesthetic emotion to the same world of aesthetic ecstasy.
There must be some one quality without which a work of art cannot exist; possessing which, in the least degree, no work is altogether worthless.
We all agree now - by 'we' I mean intelligent people under sixty - that a work of art is like a rose. A rose is not beautiful because it is like something else. Neither is a work of art. Roses and works of art are beautiful in themselves.
We have no other means of recognising a work of art than our feeling for it.
A rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind.
Simplicity is not an objective in art, but one achieves simplicity despite one's self by entering into the real sense of things.
There hasn't been any art yet. Art is just beginning.
Cleanliness is the scourge of art.
Like many men, I am highly skilled in the art of losing things but prefer to outsource the recovery process.
It is in fact agreed that I am the plague, the cholera of the benevolent and generous men who are interested in art and that, when I show myself with my plasters, even the Emperor of the Sahara would flee.
I have discovered the art of deceiving diplomats. I tell them the truth and they never believe me.
The women I know are smart, interesting people who aren't just there to service the men's stories, so I don't know why our art continues to do that.
I don't believe that art is just for entertainment. I want to create art that is meaningful in some way.
We as artists are actively encouraged - by other authors, your agent, publisher, and society - not to think about money, strategy, how to manage your career, how to create a brand, because we're supposed to focus on the art.
Use the creative process - singing, writing, art, dance, whatever - to get to know yourself better.
Our individual lives cannot, generally, be works of art unless the social order is also.
