Quotes

Mr. Holdecker : Mr. Petrie, one does not attack a painting. One approaches it as he would a woman. Is she beautiful? Does she have a heart? Does she have a soul? These are not judgments you make in an instant.
Buddy Sorrell : Hey, he's right. You could look at my wife for a whole year and not see ONE of those things.
Mr. Holdecker : [disdainfully] Yes.
-
Mr. Holdecker : You see, Wood is a great painter, and Good copies Wood's paintings. Unfortunately, Good is... no good.
-
Mr. Holdecker : Artanis is the pseudonym for a very famous actor who paints for a hobby. What he wanted was for his paintings to be regarded and loved for their intrinsic value rather than the fact that he painted them, so he signs some of them backwards.
