“Art is not merely an imitation of the reality of nature, but in truth a metaphysical supplement to the reality of nature, placed alongside thereof for its conquest.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“The truth is rarely pure and never simple.”
Oscar Wilde
“Artists use frauds to make human beings seem more wonderful than they really are. Dancers show us human beings who move much more gracefully than human beings really move. Films and books and plays show us people talking much more entertainingly than people.”
Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“The Future is a tree, on the bark of which I once crawled”
Thomas Mc Donald
“All art is but imitation of nature.”
Seneca
“Art, as far as it is able, follows nature, as a pupil imitates his master; thus your art must be, as it were, God's grandchild.”
Dante Alighieri
“Art not only imitates nature, but also completes its deficiencies.”
Aristotle
