5 Relevant and inspiring quotes: 

1. "A study shared at the 2009 Learning, Arts, and the Brain Summit reported that children showed more motivation, paid closer attention, and remembered what they learned more easily when the arts were integrated into the curriculum." http://www.pbs.org/parents/education/music-arts/how-the-arts-can-help-struggling-learners/

2. "The arts celebrate multiple perspectives.
One of their large lessons is that there are many ways to see and interpret the world." http://www.arteducators.org/advocacy/10-lessons-the-arts-teach

3. "The arts enable us to have experience we can have from no other source 
and through such experience to discover the range and variety of what we are capable of feeling." http://www.arteducators.org/advocacy/10-lessons-the-arts-teach

4. "The arts nurture a motivation to learn by emphasizing active engagement, disciplined and sustained attention, persistence and risk taking, among other competencies. Participation in the arts also is an important strategy for engaging and motivating students at risk of dropping out of high school and for those with special needs." http://www.nasaa-arts.org/Publications/critical-evidence.pdf

5. "Visual thinking is a learning style where the learner better understands and retains information when ideas, words and concepts are associated with images. Research tells us that the majority of students in a regular classroom need to see information in order to learn it." http://www.inspiration.com/visual-learning
