I did not begin with craft, I began with strong feelings and worked toward craft.
Dorothy Allison
Image
In order to obtain and hold power a man must love it. Thus the effort to get it is not likely to be coupled with goodness, but with the opposite qualities of pride, craft and cruelty.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
The master of any craft is first a master of self, cooperating with innate intelligence within.
Bryant H. McGill
Image
I was an English major in college, I went to a creative-writing program, and all my life, I really read and thought about fiction as a craft and an art form. I feel like I know a lot about it, and can trust my instincts.
Tom Perrotta
Image
I write a lot from instinct. But as you're writing out of instinct, once you reach a certain level as a songwriter, the craft is always there talking to you in the back of your head...that tells you when it's time to go to the chorus, when it's time to rhyme. Real basic craft... it's second nature.
Janis Ian

If [hand-drawn animation] is a dying craft, we can't do anything about it. Civilization moves on. Where are all the fresco painters now? Where are the landscape artists? What are they doing now? The world is changing. I have been very fortunate to be able to do the same job for 40 years. That's rare in any era.
Hayao Miyazaki

Sherwood Boehlert
Image
Skilled in every trick, a worthy heir of his paternal craft, he would make black look like white, and white look black. [Lat., Furtum ingeniosus ad omne, Qui facere assueret, patriae non degener artis, Candida de nigris, et de candentibus atra.]
Ovid
Image
No, I don't harbor any mystical ideas about writing, Your Honor, it's work like any other kind of craft the power of literature, I've always thought, lies in how willful the act of making it is.
Nicole Krauss
Image
Hosting is an art form. Like acting, singing, or comedy hosting is a craft. It's a delicate dance of timing, the ability to read the room, and the art of conversation.
Todd Newton
Image
...Nature allows Destruction nor collapse of aught, until Some outward force may shatter by a blow, Or inward craft, entering its hollow cells, Dissolve it down.
Lucretius
Image
Talent you have naturally. Skill is only developed by hours and hours and hours of beating on your craft.
Will Smith
Image
Craft' gets a bad rap. Mediocre art is not caused by craft it is caused by artists. Good art employs whatever craft works best.
Walter Darby Bannard
Image
Sense of self, and the way one shares it, is perhaps the most valuable and poetic gift in the arsenal of one's life and craft.
Sean Penn
Image
Making a book is a craft, like making a clock it needs more than native wit to be an author.
Jean de la Bruyere
Image
I don't master my craft or my style enough to have any philosophy or dogma to which I feel I belong.
Xavier Dolan
Image
I admire Meryl Streep and Dustin Hoffman for their sheer dedication to their craft.
Lavrenti Lopes
Image
True artists pursue greatness in craft in order to give the Lord the best fruit of the talent He has given them, not to build themselves up. They understand that true greatness is found in the heart of the servant.
Charlie Peacock
Image
It's my belief that cooking is a craft. I think that you can push it into the realm of art, but it starts with craft. It starts with an understanding of materials. It starts with an understanding of where foods are grown.
Tom Colicchio
Image
We all work to succeed in whatever we choose to do in life, so every success only pushes me to do better and I am constantly trying to improve my craft as an actor.
Hrithik Roshan
Image
When you devote yourself to being an artist, you have to stay on your craft and always try to get better and better.
Raekwon
Image
Women have tongues of craft, and hearts of guile, They will, they will not fools that on them trust For in their speech is death, hell in their smile. [It., Femmina e cosa garrula e fallace: Vuole e disvuole, e folle uom chi sen fida, Si tra se volge.]
Torquato Tasso
Image
It's just the more you do it the better you get, or at least that's how I feel in my case. I think it's a combination of confidence and just having done it this long and just learning. I'm always learning. I'm still honing my craft.
Lucinda Williams
Image
I’m interested in vernacular cultures, where people lived a little closer to the source of materials and the making of objects for use. And for me, not to rely strictly on the history of art has always been an interesting process, to be looking into areas that we call craft and trades.
