Patina Quotes

The greater involution and deeper patina of her left tooth in comparison to the right, the skeptical cast Picture Quote #1

Stories are a kind of thing, too. Stories and objects share something, a patina. I thought I had this clear, two years ago before I started, but I am no longer sure how this works. Perhaps a patina is a process of rubbing back so that the essential is revealed, the way that a striated stone tumbled in a river feels irreducible, the way that this netsuke of a fox has become little more than a memory of a nose and a tail. But it also seems additive, in the way that a piece of oak furniture gains over years and years of polishing, and the way the leaves of my medlar shine Picture Quote #1

Time gives growth, it gives continuity and it gives change. And in the case of some sculptures, time gives a patina to them Picture Quote #1

Life is one long decay, no? There’s a lot of beauty in it. Like the patina in an old city Picture Quote #1

I am convinced that a good building must be capable of absorbing the traces of human life and taking on a specific richness... I think of the patina of age on materials, of innumerable small scratches on surfaces, of varnish that has grown dull and brittle, and of edges polished by use Picture Quote #1

For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority Picture Quote #1

Only Zionists get to proclaim their fear of a brown planet while simultaneously maintaining a patina of liberal respectability Picture Quote #1

Life is one long decay, no? There’s a lot of beauty in it. Like the patina in an old city Picture Quote #1

At the time that they were shown, the Brillo Boxes were underappreciated. It’s only now, with the patina of history, that we can really see these masterpieces in a clear light Picture Quote #1
