I am trying to make art that relates to the deepest and most mythic concerns of human kind and I believe that at this moment of history feminism is humanism.

Form your life humanly and you have done enough: but you will never reach the height of art and the depth of science without something divine.

I don't think art is propaganda it should be something that liberates the soul provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further. It celebrates humanity instead of manipulating it.

The work of art just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning seems to me devoid of value if it does not offer the hardness the rigidity the regularity the luster on every interior and exterior facet of the crystal.

A metaphysical tour de force of untethered meaning and involuting interlocking contrapuntal rhythms 'The Clock' is more than a movie or even a work of art. It is so strange and other-ish that it becomes a stream-of-consciousness algorithm unto itself - something almost inhuman.

A rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind.

Wherever the art of medicine is loved there is also a love of humanity.

In science as in art and as I believe in every other sphere of human activity there may be wisdom in a multitude of counsellors but it is only in one or two of them.

One science only will one genius fit so vast is art so narrow human wit.

Really I don't like human nature unless all candied over with art.

All humanity is passion without passion religion history novels art would be ineffectual.

The momentous thing in human life is the art of winning the soul to good or evil.

Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion history romance and art would be useless.

Logic: The art of thinking and reasoning in strict accordance with the limitations and incapacities of the human misunderstanding.

The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.

I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.

No heirloom of humankind captures the past as do art and language.

The beauty one can find in art is one of the pitifully few real and lasting products of human endeavor.

Art is the stored honey of the human soul gathered on wings of misery and travail.

Art begins with resistance - at the point where resistance is overcome. No human masterpiece has ever been created without great labor.

So vast is art so narrow human wit.

Every human is an artist. The dream of your life is to make beautiful art.

There is a powerful need for symbolism and that means the architecture must have something that appeals to the human heart. There is a powerful need for symbolism and that means the architecture must have something that appeals to the human heart.

Architecture can't fully represent the chaos and turmoil that are part of the human personality but you need to put some of that turmoil into the architecture or it isn't real.
