Famous quotes containing the word von:

    By the artist’s seizing any one object from nature, that object no longer is part of nature. One can go so far as to say that the artist creates the object in that very moment by emphasizing its significant, characteristic, and interesting aspects or, rather, by adding the higher values.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
