"The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity." ― Walt Whitman Topic(s): Art More From Walt Whitman "Judging from the main portions of the history of the world, so far, justice is always in jeopardy." "I am for those who believe in loose delights, I share the midnight orgies of young men, I dance with the dancers and drink with the drinkers." "He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher." More In Art "The 1990s, after the reign of terror of academic vandalism, will be a decade of restoration: restoration of meaning, value, beauty, pleasure, and emotion to art and restoration of art to its audience."― Camille Paglia "We settled this continent without art. So it was easy for us to treat it as an imported luxury, not a necessity."― Arthur Erickson "There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality."― Pablo Picasso
