Quotations about Art by Author
E

Thomas Eakins

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

It is the theory that determines what can be observed.

T.S. Eliot

Poets today in our civilization have to be difficult because they are responding to contemporary experience which is fragmentary, elusive, multi-perspectival.

Roy Emmins 
   (born 1939)
