Museums Quotes

Of course art world ethics are important. But museums are no purer than any other institution or business. Academics aren't necessarily more high minded than gallerists Picture Quote #1

Outside museums, in noisy public squares, people look at people. Inside museums, we leave that realm and enter what might be called the group mind, getting quiet to look at art Picture Quote #1

Summer is a great time to visit art museums, which offer the refreshing rinse of swimming pools - only instead of cool water, you immerse yourself in art Picture Quote #1

The best museums and museum exhibits about science or technology give you the feeling that, hey, this is interesting, but maybe I could do something here, too Picture Quote #1

As for pictures and museums, that don’t trouble me. The worst of going abroad is that you’ve always got to look at things of that sort. To have to do it at home would be beyond a joke Picture Quote #1

If you’re middle aged... where’re you going to go to meet someone? You’re not going to go to a bar, you’re not going to go to a night club; and there are the museums Picture Quote #1

Some of our greatest historical and artistic treasures we place in museums; others, we take for walks Picture Quote #1

We talk about theatre museums filled with old costumes and things. What we also need is a theatre museum of the old routines on videotape. We are only the custodians of those techniques, and they should be preserved Picture Quote #1

A great department store, easily reached, open at all hours, is more like a good museum of art than any of the museums we have yet established Picture Quote #1

Individually, museums are fine institutions, dedicated to the high values of preservation, education and truth; collectively, their growth in numbers points to the imaginative death of this country Picture Quote #1

History is representational, while time is abstract; both of these artifices may be found in museums, where they span everybody’s own vacancy Picture Quote #1

Fifty percent of all meaningful education takes place in the home. What do you share with your child? You share your interests. I was a book person. I read with my son. My wife is an artist. She dragged his little butt around to museums. He’s an illustrator of children’s books Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to sound pretentious, but I love art, I like to go to museums, and I like to read books Picture Quote #1

I’m extremely profane, unconsciously so, when I see something great for the first time; I don’t know why, but beauty and profanity are related to me in the same way. It may be that I want to think of art in the vernacular, but I have no control over what comes out of my mouth when my eyes take in great beauty... it might just be the reason I avoid going to museums with elderly ladies Picture Quote #1

A dancer should learn from all the arts. Go to museums and look at the paintings. See how they balance things. Everything you do in the arts enriches you Picture Quote #1

You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing back, no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to show on walls and maybe hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold, nothing but that fleeting moment when you feel alive. It is not for unsteady souls Picture Quote #1

And it is true that life lacks the monotony of museums. There come days which seem worthy of being framed, but they are so full of conflicting sounds, of line and color and living, burning light that they never become tedious Picture Quote #1

Our spending priorities are clearly in question when we are increasing bond indebtedness on pet projects such as museums while our infrastructure is allegedly failing. Mississippians are spending more on basic needs than ever. They don’t need their state government making that worse Picture Quote #1

Museums have these great collections and the reality is they attract a regional audience not a national audience Picture Quote #1
