English - Dramatist June 24, 1916 - March 30, 1986

With the author

Every parent is at some time the father of the unreturned prodigal, with nothing to do but keep his house open to hope.

John Ciardi

Love is the word used to label the sexual excitement of the young, the habituation of the middle-aged, and the mutual dependence of the old.

John Ciardi

What has any poet to trust more than the feel of the thing? Theory concerns him only until he picks up his pen, and it begins to concern him again as soon as he lays it down.

John Ciardi

A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of idea.

John Ciardi

You don't have to suffer to be a poet; adolescence is enough suffering for anyone.

John Ciardi

Poetry lies its way to the truth.

John Ciardi

It is easy enough to praise men for the courage of their convictions. I wish I could teach the sad young of this mealy generation the courage of their confusions.

John Ciardi

Intelligence recognizes what has happened. Genius recognizes what will happen.

John Ciardi

If only life could be a little more tender and art a little more robust.

Alan Rickman

We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art.

Salvador Dali

Painting is self-discovery. Every good artist paints what he is.

Jackson Pollock

My attitude towards drawing is not necessarily about drawing. It's about making the best kind of image I can make, it's about talking as clearly as I can.

Jim Dine

A beautiful lady is an accident of nature. A beautiful old lady is a work of art.

Louis Nizer

The purpose of art actually is, in many cases, to make you feel quite uncomfortable. Or at least to go to that place that's already of discomfort inside of you and tap into that.

Michael Moore

Art, freedom and creativity will change society faster than politics.

Victor Pinchuk

All art is propaganda, and ever must be, despite the wailing of the purists. I stand in utter shamelessness and say that whatever art I have for writing has been used always for propaganda for gaining the right of black folk to love and enjoy. I do not care a damn for any art that is not used for propaganda.

W. E. B. Du Bois
