Letter "C" » Clive Bell Quotes
«All sensitive people agree that there is a peculiar emotion provoked by works of art.»
Author: Clive Bell
«Art and Religion are, then, two roads by which men escape from circumstance to ecstasy. Between aesthetic and religious rapture there is a family alliance. Art and Religion are means to similar states of mind.»
Author: Clive Bell
«There must be some one quality without which a work of art cannot exist; possessing which, in the least degree, no work is altogether worthless.»
Author: Clive Bell
«The forms of art are inexhaustible; but all lead by the same road of aesthetic emotion to the same world of aesthetic ecstasy.»
Author: Clive Bell
«Genius worship is the inevitable sign of an uncreative age.»
Author: Clive Bell
«Comfort came in with the middle classes.»
Author: Clive Bell
«For, to appreciate a work of art we need bring with us nothing from life, no knowledge of its ideas and affairs, no familiarity with its emotions. Art transports us from the world of man's activity to a world of aesthetic exaltation. For a moment we are shut off from human interests; our anticipations and memories are arrested; we are lifted above the stream of life.»
Author: Clive Bell
«It is the mark of great art that its appeal is universal and eternal.»
Author: Clive Bell
«A rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind.»
