Picasso is one of my idols. A great painter, a great artist, and an even greater person to quote. Mostly because he's brilliant and unique. He had great respect for everything around him. Here are a few quotes from the man who started the cubism movement!
1. “Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.”
2. “Everything آپ can imagine is real.”
3. “Action is the foundational key to all success.”
4. “Each سیکنڈ we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again. And what do we teach our children? We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them: Do آپ know what آپ are? آپ are a marvel. آپ are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way آپ move. آپ may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. آپ have the capacity for anything. Yes, آپ are a marvel. And when آپ grow up, can آپ then harm another who is, like you, a marvel? آپ must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its children.”
5. “Only put off until tomorrow what آپ are willing to die having left undone.”
6. “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.”
7. “I'd like to live as a poor man with lots of money.”
8. “The world today doesn't make sense, so why should I paint pictures that do?”
9. “It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child”
10. “Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.”
11. “Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.”
12. “Love is the greatest تازگی, تفرج in life”
13. “I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.”
14. “There is no abstract art. آپ must always start with something. Afterward آپ can remove all traces of reality.”
15. “Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, یا the painter?”
16. “The chief enemy of creativity is "good" sense.”
17. “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.”
18. “I am always doing things I can't do, that's how I get to do them.”
19. “Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, یا what's behind it?”
20. “I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.”
21. “Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.”
22. “God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant, and the cat. He has no real style. He just keeps on trying other things.”
23. “Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot; others transform a yellow spot into the sun.”
24. “Computers are useless. They can only give آپ answers.”
25. “I do not seek. I find.
26. “I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.”
27. “Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.”
28. “We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth, at least the truth that is دیا to us to understand.”
29. “As an artist, all I need is my paints and brushes - and someone to drag me away when the canvas is done”
30. “Is there anything مزید dangerous than sympathetic understanding?”
31. “Often while reading a book one feels that the مصنف would have preferred to paint rather than write; one can sense the pleasure he derives from describing a landscape یا a person, as if he were painting what he is saying, because deep in his دل he would have preferred to use brushes and colors.”
32. “The older آپ get the stronger the wind gets - and it's always in your face.”
33. “The artist is a receptacle for the emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.”
34. “The people who make art their business are mostly imposters.”
35. “Everyone wants to understand painting. Why is there no attempt to understand the song of the birds?”
36. “It takes a long time to become young.”
37. “Youth has no age.”
38. “What is a face, really? Its own photo? Its make-up? یا is it a face as painted سے طرف کی such یا such painter? That which is in front? Inside? Behind? And the rest? Doesn't everyone look at himself in his own particular way? Deformations simply do not exist”
39. “If everybody is looking for it, then nobody is finding it. If we were cultured, we would not be conscious of lacking culture. We would regard it as something natural and would not make so much fuss about it. And if we knew the real value of this word we would be cultured enough not to give it so much importance.”
40. “Accidents, try to change them -- it's impossible. The accidental reveals man.”
41. “Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.”
42. “Taste is the enemy of creativeness”
43. “The genius of Einstein leads to Hiroshima.”
44. “I don't paint things the way I see them, but the way I think them.”
45. “What do آپ think an artist is? An imbecile who has only his eyes if he is a painter, یا his ears if he is a musician, یا a lyre at every level of his دل if he is a poet, or, if he is merely a boxer, only his muscle? On the contrary, he is at the same time a political being, constantly alert to the heartrending, burning, یا happy events in the world, molding himself in their likeness.”
46. “To finish a work? To finish a picture? What nonsense! To finish it means to be through with it, to kill it, to rid it of its soul, to give it its final blow the coup de grace for the painter as well as for the picture.”
47. “One starts to get young at sixty, and then it's too late”
48. “When I paint I feel that all the artists of the past are behind me.”
49. “When they tell me I'm too old to do something, I attempt it immediately.”
50. “Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.”
