connoisseur - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

If you weren't such a kind and appreciative connoisseur, why would I ever be an artist?

The connoisseur would be at one with the artistry of any dish, riding the flavours as each were a new ride in fun fair, or perhaps an iconic blast from a famous orchestra some place. It was as if the food to others was eating in the dark and he had not only a flashlight, yet the ability to bring real sunlight to the appreciation of the meal.

The connoisseur made it her purpose to elevate the artist, to bring appreciation to those obsessed by the tiny details that make the world better one small innovation at a time.

What is the point of any amazing feat if there is no connoisseur to bare witness to such achievement. The performer needs the wider audience, yet the connoisseur provides the most brilliant stage lights.
