Thought is the sculptor who can create the person you want to be.
Henry David Thoreau
People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something that one finds. It is something one creates.
Szasz, Thomas
Every young sculptor seems to think that he must give the world some specimen of indecorous womanhood, and call it Eve, Venus, a Nymph, or any name that may apologize for a lack of decent clothing.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
The jargon of these sculptors is beyond me. I do not know precisely why I admire a green granite female, apparently pregnant monster with one eye going around a square corner.
Pound, Ezra
No person who is not a great sculptor or painter can be an architect. If he is not a sculptor or painter, he can only be a builder.
Ruskin, John
Architects, painters, and sculptors must recognize anew and learn to grasp the composite character of a building both as an entity and in its separate parts. Only then will their work be imbued with the architectonic spirit which it has lost as salon art. Together let us desire, conceive, and create the new structure of the future, which will embrace architecture and sculpture and painting in one unity and which will one day rise toward heaven from the hands of a million workers like the crystal symbol of a new faith.
Gropius, Walter
If the world would only build temples to Machinery in the abstract then everything would be perfect. The painter and sculptor would have plenty to do, and could, in complete peace and suitably honored, pursue their trade without further trouble.
Lewis, Wyndham
There are innumerable questions to which the inquisitive mind can in this state receive no answer: Why do you and I exist? Why was this world created? Since it was to be created, why was it not created sooner?
Johnson, Samuel
Sometimes you gotta create what you want to be a part of.
Weitzman, Geri
Man was created a little lower than the angels and has bin getting a little lower ever since.
Shaw, Henry Wheeler
