Art

The focus should be on the players. I'm here a long time. You can call me in the summer. Our seniors will be gone.
- Smith, Dean
Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art is merely romantic fiction. The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.
Wolfe, Thomas

2.
I'm still an artist. I'm never gonna do a shit movie, because I've got my modeling to support me.
Jovovich, Milla

3.
The focus should be on the players. I'm here a long time. You can call me in the summer. Our seniors will be gone.
Smith, Dean

4.
I merely took the energy it takes to pout and wrote some blues.
Duke Ellington

5.
There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.
Pablo Picasso

6.
Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul. The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of Artist.
Poe, Edgar Allan

7.
I will soon be going out to shape all the singing tomorrows.
Peri, Gabriel

8.
Art imitates Nature in this; not to dare is to dwindle.
Updike, John

9.
Another unsettling element in modern art is that common symptom of immaturity, the dread of doing what has been done before.
Edith Wharton

10.
Wherever art appears, life disappears.
Picabia, Francis

11.
One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.
Scott, Sir Walter

12.
Art need no longer be an account of past sensations. It can become the direct organization of more highly evolved sensations. It is a question of producing ourselves, not things that enslave us.
Debord, Guy

13.
There are in every generation those who shrink from the ultimate sacrifice, but there are in every generation those who make it with joy and laughter and these are the salt of the generations.
Pearse, Patrick Henry

14.
Whether joy or sorrowful, the heart needs a double, because a joy shared is doubled and a pain that is shared is divided.
Ruckett

15.
Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in.
Amy Lowell

16.
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

17.
O, had I but followed the arts!
Shakespeare, William

18.
As the arteries grow hard, the heart grows soft.
Mencken, H. L.

19.
The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly.
Huxley, Aldous

20.
Seek not good from without: seek it within yourselves, or you will never find it.
Suttner, Bertha Von

21.
Art is the human disposition of sensible or intelligible matter for an esthetic end.
Joyce, James

22.
Photography, fortunately, to me has not only been a profession but also a contact between people - to understand human nature and record, if possible, the best in each individual.
Nickolas Muray

23.
No human beings more dangerous than those who have suffered for a belief: the great persecutors are recruited from the martyrs not quite beheaded. Far from diminishing the appetite for power, suffering exasperates it.
Cioran, E. M.

24.
It's not your painting anymore. It stopped being your painting the moment that you finished it.
Jeff Melvoin

25.
Drink, and dance and laugh and lie, love the reeling midnight through, for tomorrow we shall die! (But, alas, we never do.)
Parker, Dorothy

26.
The great artist is a slave to his ideals.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

27.
Experiment is necessary in establishing an academy, but certain principles must apply to this business of art as to any other business which affects the artistic tic sense of the community. Great art speaks a language which every intelligent person can understand. The people who call themselves modernists today speak a different language.
Menzies, Robert

28.
The more a man cultivates the arts the less he fornicates. A more and more apparent cleavage occurs between the spirit and the brute.
Baudelaire, Charles

29.
If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come.
Proverb, Chinese

30.
Like other parties of the kind, it was first silent, then talky, then argumentative, then disputatious, then unintelligible, then altogether, then inarticulate, and then drunk. When we had reached the last step of this glorious ladder, it was difficult to get down again without stumbling.
Byron, Lord

31.
No man dies for what he knows to be true. Men die for what they want to be true, for what some terror in their hearts tells them is not true.
Wilde, Oscar

32.
Were art to redeem man, it could do so only by saving him from the seriousness of life and restoring him to an unexpected boyishness.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

33.
The function of art is to make that understood which in the form of argument would be incomprehensible.
Brancusi, Constantin

34.
Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.
Cicero

35.
Impartial. Unable to perceive any promise of personal advantage from espousing either side of a controversy.
Bierce, Ambrose

36.
Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
Einstein, Albert

37.
Art is a private thing, the artist makes it for himself; a comprehensible work is the product of a journalist. We need works that are strong, straight, precise, and forever beyond understanding.
Tzara, Tristan

38.
When I judge art, I take my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower. If it clashes, it is not art.
Chagall, Marc

39.
Inside you there's an artist you don't know about. He's not interested in how things look different in moonlight.
Rumi, Jalal-Uddin

40.
Art has an enemy called ignorance.
Johnson, Ben

41.
Art is parasitic on life, just as criticism is parasitic on art.
Tynan, Kenneth

42.
By the time a partnership dissolves, it has dissolved.
Updike, John

43.
One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape... it allows us to fix our emotions on events at the moment they occur, it permits a union of heart and mind and tongue and tear.
French, Marilyn

44.
Two things are bad for the heart -- running up stairs and running down people.
Baruch, Bernard M.

45.
I know just how frustrating it can be when you're tired and exhausted, but you still want to draw something.
Ward Jenkins

46.
He bores me. He ought to have stuck to his flying machine. [On Leonardo Da Vinci]
Renoir, Pierre Auguste

47.
There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into the sun.
Pablo Picasso

48.
Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp.
Dubuffet, Jean

49.
Don't waste time trying to break a man's heart; be satisfied if you can just manage to chip it in a brand new place.
Rowland, Helen

50.
Art is the symbol of the two noblest human efforts: to construct and to refrain from destruction.
Weil, Simone
