Louise Bogan Art Quotations

Innocence of heart and violence of feeling are necessary in any kind of superior achievement: The arts cannot exist without them.

... politics are nothing but sand and gravel: it is art and life that feed us until we die. Everything else is ambition, hysteria or hatred.

The art of one period cannot be approached through the attitudes (emotional or intellectual) of another.

True revolutions in art restore more than they destroy.

All art, in spite of the struggles of some critics to prove otherwise, is based on emotion and projects emotion.
