The man’s outstretched arm always pointed south  (Kit Williams Quotes) The engine of ancient society was religion but the engine of contemporary society, as I see it, is advertising  (Kit Williams Quotes) The dog, the rabbit and the hoop all feature in the painting, and take the place of the orrery  (Kit Williams Quotes) Once upon a perfect night, unclouded and still, there came the face of a pale and beautiful lady. The tresses of her hair reached out to make the constellations, and the dewy vapours of her gown fell soft upon the land  (Kit Williams Quotes) In the fairy tale the painting represents the here and now. The book is actually divided into five sections, through which the key character, the muse, leads us  (Kit Williams Quotes) If we listen human instinct actually tells us what we need, but advertising makes us want things we don’t need and things we can’t have  (Kit Williams Quotes) I took lots of photographs and had planned to write a treatise on how it worked, but I quickly got bored with that idea and wrote a scientific fairy tale instead  (Kit Williams Quotes) I think most artists find it difficult to part with their work but it’s the parting that keeps us alive and keeps us working. In the case of the chariot, although it’s been sold I actually still have it, just in another form  (Kit Williams Quotes) I started by looking at what others had done before me. You see, over the years there have been attempts by many different people to reconstruct the chariot  (Kit Williams Quotes) He was so tenacious he defied the distraction of women by refusing to have them in his presence, just as later in life he denied his blindness by calling for more and more candles  (Kit Williams Quotes) Having designed and built several clocks during my career it suddenly occurred to me that when you look at the face of a clock both hands have the same center  (Kit Williams Quotes) As I was working I noticed that the way I designed the differential gearing actually created a spare drive that sat directly below the emperor’s feet, or where they would be if he were to sit in the chariot  (Kit Williams Quotes)
