Art Quote by Xenophanes
“If oxen and lions had hands and could paint with their hands and produce works of art, as men do, horses would paint the forms of the gods likes horses and oxen like oxen. Each would represent them with bodies according to the bodies of each. So the Ethiopians make their gods black and snub-nosed; the Thracians give theirs red hair and blue eyes.”
![“...for our wisdom is better than the strength of men or of horses. ... nor is it right to prefer strength to excellent wisdom. For if there should be in the city [any athlete whose skill] is honoured more than strength ... the city would not on that account be any better governed.” quote by Xenophanes](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/e65/xenophanes-16062_accounts_for-our-wisdom-is-better-than-the-streng_36482.jpg)
