• The highest art is where has been most perfectly breathed the sentiment of humanity...Some persons suppose that landscape has no power of communicating human sentiment. But this is a great mistake. The civilized landscape peculiarly can: and therefore I love it more and think it more worthy of reproduction than that which is savage and untamed. It is more significant. Every act of man, every thing of labor, effort, suffering, want, anxiety, necessity, love, marks itself wherever it has been.

  George Inness

  Joyce Carol Oates

  Art, Mean, Past

• Art. Its definitions are legion, its meanings multitudinous, its importance often debated.

  Ken Wilber

  Beautiful, Spiritual, Art

  18 Copy quote

• Art is a window to The Infinite, and opening to the goddess, a portal through which you and I, with the help of the artist, may discover depths and heights of our soul undreamed of by the vulgar world. Art is the eye of the spirit, through which the sublime can reach down to us, and we up to it, and be transformed, transfigured in the process.

  Ken Wilber

  Art, Eye, Soul
