About Danny K
Expertise
I can answer questions you may have on quotations of people. You can either give me a quote, to see if I can identify the author, or give me a person, and I will look for quotes attributed to him or her.

Experience
I am a trivia nut, and a New York Yankee fan, so, from that, I have developed a liking of quotes, such as those of Yogi Berra, or even movie stars.

Quotations - Art Quote


Expert: Danny K - 10/23/2002

Question
Hey Danny K,
Who said, 'art washes away form the soul the dust of everyday life'? Also...does that quote really begin with 'art' or is it 'music'... or maybe both?
Thanks!
Lisa

Answer
Lisa,

That was attributed to Pablo Picasso, and did start with "art". I also found it with "music, as quoted from a German novelist who wrote children's stories, named Berthold Auerbach.I find more "official" looking sites that say Berthold Auerbach said it, but I cannot conclude, with my sources, which is correct.


Danny
