"A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else." ― Charles Baudelaire Topic(s): Art More From Charles Baudelaire "Always be a poet, even in prose." "This life is a hospital in which every patient is possessed with a desire to change his bed." "An artist is an artist only because of his exquisite sense of beauty, a sense which shows him intoxicating pleasures, but which at the same time implies and contains an equally exquisite sense of all deformities and all disproportion." More In Art "Art does not reproduce what we see; rather, it makes us see."― Paul Klee "All I owe the world is my art."― Sherman Alexie "I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting."― Paul Cezanne
