"Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together." ― John Ruskin Topic(s): Art More From John Ruskin "No lying knight or lying priest ever prospered in any age, but especially not in the dark ones. Men prospered then only in following an openly declared purpose, and preaching candidly beloved and trusted creeds." "The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world… to see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion all in one." "A great thing can only be done by a great person; and they do it without effort." More In Art "Memory is a great artist. For every man and for every woman it makes the recollection of his or her life a work of art and an unfaithful record."― Andre Maurois "Art is either plagiarism or revolution."― Paul Gauguin "The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses it especially in art."― Friedrich Nietzsche
