When they were in school, Peter used to say that everything you do is a self-portrait. It might look like 'Saint George and the Dragon' or 'The Rape of the Sabine Women,' but the angle you use, the lighting, the composition, the technique, they're all you. You are every color and brushstroke. - Chuck Palahniuk
Grace was pouring out everywhere, from hidden sounds, into Els's damaged auditory cortex.

I tell you before God, and as an honest man, your son (W A Mozart)is the greatest composer known to me by person and repute, he has taste and what is more the greatest skill in composition. - Joseph Haydn
Unprovided with original learning, unformed in the habits of thinking, unskilled in the arts of composition, I resolved to write a book. - Edward Gibbon
Good composition is like a suspension bridge; each line adds strength and takes none away... Making lines run into each other is not composition. There must be motive for the connection. Get the art of controlling the observer – that is composition. - Robert Henri
To consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravitation before going for a walk. - Edward Weston
Thinking is translating 'prosaic-ideas' without accessories" since ideas (in brain) do not follow any metrical composition. - Md. Ziaul Haque
