I think the problem with the art market and the art scene is that it is its own beast. It thrives and breathes and defecates independently of the artist.

Robert Del Naja

Terrorism thrives on a free society. The terrorist uses the feelings in a free society to sap the will of civilization to resist. If the terrorist succeeds, he has won and the whole of free society has lost.

Margaret Thatcher

Art can no longer be art today if it does not reach into the heart of our present culture and work transformatively within it that is, an art which cannot mould society — and through this naturally operate upon the core questions of our society — is not art.

Joseph Beuys

There is nothing so despicable as a secret society that is based upon religious prejudice and that will attempt to defeat a man because of his religious beliefs. Such a society is like a cockroach - it thrives in the dark. So do those who combine for such an end.

William Howard Taft

There is the specter of "realism" that is still haunting Chinese contemporary art - that art is only an instrument, an instrument to reflect society, that it must be useful for society. Also, I have noticed many Western media outlets are very insistent on understanding contemporary art in China through this kind of realist approach. Sometimes I even sense that they are intent on, as we say in China, "picking bones of politics out of an egg of art." Or perhaps they see art as merely an instrument to reflect society.

Wang Jianwei

When we empower women, society benefits, grows, and thrives.

Paul Polman

Blest is that government where no art thrives.

Thomas Nashe

I believe America thrives when the middle class thrives.

Art thrives on obstacles. The bigger the obstacle, the better the drama.

Nicolas Winding Refn

When the middle class thrives, the country thrives, and when it doesn't, we don't.

Hillary Clinton

What's great about theater and drama is it thrives on dialogue, and dialogue thrives on people with different points of view fighting for what they want.

Mike Bartlett

While art thrives on the blazing colours of scandal, literature blossoms on the dark soil of tragedy.

E. A. Bucchianeri

Where civil society thrives, governments operate with more transparency and accountability. This creates a tangible impact on the lives of everyday citizens.

Ben Rhodes

Art thrives on a difference of opinion. My treasure is your junk, sort of thing. Life would be dull if we all agreed.

Robert Genn

All great art is by its very essence in conflict with the society with which it exists. It expresses the truth about the existence regardless of whether this truth serves or hinders the survival purpose of a given society. All great art is revolutionary because it touches upon the reality of man and questions the reality of the various transitory forms of human society.

Erich Fromm

Thai society rarely attempts to control literature in the same way that it vigilantly polices visual art. It's ironic because people in this society are more aware of literature than they are of art.
