Quote

The amount which cannot be harnessed and domesticated, but insists on its own form of activity rather than one which is offered ready made, is the energy used for the creation of art.

The amount which cannot be harnessed and domesticated, but insists on its own form of activity rather than one which is offered ready made, is the energy used for the creation of art.

The artist always has been and still is a being somewhat apart from the rest of humanity.

Beatrice M. Hinkle Writer

The creator does not create only for the pleasure of creating but . . . he also desires to subdue other minds.

Beatrice M. Hinkle Writer

There is one great and universal wish of mankind expressed in all religions, in all art and philosophy, and in all human life: the wish to pass beyond himself as he now is.

Beatrice M. Hinkle Writer

. . . woman is a being dominated by the creative urge and . . . no understanding of her as an individual can be gained unless the significance and effects of that great fact can be grasped.

Beatrice M. Hinkle Writer

Smiles come naturally to me, but I started thinking of them as an art form at my command. I studied all the time. I looked at magazines, I'd practice in front of the mirror and I'd ask photographers about the best angles. I can now pull out a smile at will.

Tyra Banks Television Personality

I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.

Vincent Van Gogh Painter

Art is indeed not the bread but the wine of life.

Jean Paul Writer

Another unsettling element in modern art is that common symptom of immaturity, the dread of doing what has been done before.

Edith Wharton Novelist

Contrary to what some folks would have us believe, it is not tragic, even if undesirable, for a person to leave a liberal arts education not having read major works from this canon. Their lives are not ending. And the exciting dimension of knowledge is that we can learn a work without formally studying it. If a student graduates without reading Shakespeare and then reads or studies this work later, it does not delegitimize whatever formal course of study that was completed.

Bell Hooks Author

Man has used human rhythmic movement as raw material out of which to create works of art, as the composer of music uses sound, the sculptor uses stone and wood, the painter his pigments, and the writer - words.

Ted Shawn
