Quotations by Subject: Art (81 quotes)

Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

Far better to think historically, to remember the lessons of the past. Thus, far better to conceive of power as consisting in part of the knowledge of when not to use all the power you have. Far better to be one who knows that if you reserve the power not to use all your power, you will lead others far more successfully and well.: A. Bartlett Giamatti (1938 - 1989), President of Yale University

Remember! Things in life will not always run smoothly. Sometimes we will be rising toward the heights - then all will seem to reverse itself and start downward. The great fact to remember is that the trend of civilization itself is forever upward, that a line drawn through the middle of the peaks and the valleys of the centuries always has an upward trend.: Endicott Peabody (1857 - 1944)
The best way to keep one's word is not to give it.: Napoleon Bonaparte (1769 - 1821)
This is our purpose: to make as meaningful as possible this life that has been bestowed upon us; to live in such a way that we may be proud of ourselves; to act in such a way that some part of us lives on.: Oswald Spengler (1880 - 1936)
Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested: that is, some books are to be read only in parts, others to be read, but not curiously, and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention.: Sir Francis Bacon (1561 - 1626)

It is a fine thing to establish one's own religion in one's heart, not to be dependent on tradition and second-hand ideals. Life will seem to you, later, not a lesser, but a greater thing.: D. H. Lawrence (1885 - 1930)
- More quotations on: [Religion]
Living apart and at peace with myself, I came to realize more vividly the meaning of the doctrine of acceptance. To refrain from giving advice, to refrain from meddling in the affairs of others, to refrain, even though the motives be the highest, from tampering with another's way of life - so simple, yet so difficult for an active spirit. Hands off!: Henry Miller (1891 - 1980)
When you are right you cannot be too radical; when you are wrong, you cannot be too conservative.: Martin Luther King Jr. (1929 - 1968)
- More quotations on: [Conservatives] [Liberals]
Do what you feel in your heart to be right - for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't.: Eleanor Roosevelt (1884 - 1962)
- More quotations on: [Criticism]
Conquer thyself, till thou has done this, thou art but a slave; for it is almost as well to be subjected to another's appetite as to thine own.: Sir Richard Francis Burton (1821 - 1890)
