Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
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

2.
It is a weakness that I lead from my heart, and not my head?
Diana, Princess of Wales

3.
If you were in a burning house and there was a cat and a Rembrandt, what would you save? The cat...you would save the cat, because the cat is alive. The art is dead. It's just paint on a canvas, ink on a page. To live for art is to deny life. It's just to destroy life.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

4.
Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.
Cicero

5.
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

6.
Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
Churchill, Winston

7.
This grandiose tragedy that we call modern art.
Dali, Salvador

8.
Humanity is the rich effluvium, it is the waste and the manure and the soil, and from it grows the tree of the arts.
Pound, Ezra

9.
The artist is extremely lucky who is presented with the worst possible ordeal which will not actually kill him. At that point, he's in business.
Berryman, John

10.
The powerful play goes on -- and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?

11.
It doesn't matter if people are interested. It's about you taking your stuff and shouting out into the void.
Jadelr and Cristina Cordova

12.
There is nothing enduring in life for a women except what she builds in a man's heart.
Anderson, Judith

13.
In our own hearts, we mold the whole world's hereafters; and in our own hearts we fashion our own gods.
Melville, Herman

14.
Within your heart, keep one still, secret spot where dreams may go.
Driscoll, Louise

15.
The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.
Walt Whitman

16.
Not the glittering weapon fights the fight, but rather the hero's heart.
Proverb

17.
A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else.
Baudelaire, Charles

18.
Martyrs, my friend, have to choose between being forgotten, mocked or used. As for being understood -- never.
Camus, Albert

19.
In art as in love, instinct is enough.
France, Anatole

20.
There is in every human heart Some not completely barren part, Where seeds of truth and love might grow, And flowers of generous virtue flow; To plant, to watch, to water there, This be our duty, be our care.
Bowring, Sir John

21.
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Byron, Lord

22.
In order for the artist to have a world to express he must first be situated in this world, oppressed or oppressing, resigned or rebellious, a man among men.
Beauvoir, Simone De

23.
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing: we know this in countless ways.
Pascal, Blaise

24.
The essence of all art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure
Baryshnikov, Mikhail

25.
There is the falsely mystical view of art that assumes a kind of supernatural inspiration, a possession by universal forces unrelated to questions of power and privilege or the artist's relation to bread and blood. In this view, the channel of art can only become clogged and misdirected by the artist's concern with merely temporary and local disturbances. The song is higher than the struggle.
Rich, Adrienne

26.
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.

27.
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

28.
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.

29.
Fortunately art is a community effort --a small but select community living in a spiritualized world endeavoring to interpret the wars and the solitudes of the flesh.
Ginsberg, Allen

30.
Only an artist can interpret the meaning of life.
Novalis

31.
To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
Joseph Chilton Pearce

32.
Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.
Alfred North Whitehead

33.
If your heart were sincere and upright, every creature would be unto you a looking-glass of life and a book of holy doctrine.
Kempis, Thomas

34.
Art raises its head where creeds relax.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

35.
Religion and art spring from the same root and are close kin. Economics and art are strangers.
Cather, Willa

36.
The contemporary thing in art and literature is the thing which doesn't make enough difference to the people of that generation so that they can accept it or reject it.
Stein, Gertrude

37.
A Great man is he who does not lose his childlike heart.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)

38.
I think there is only one quality worse than hardness of heart and that is softness of head.
Roosevelt, Theodore

39.
Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything.
Eugene Delacroix

40.
Classic art was the art of necessity: modern romantic art bears the stamp of caprice and chance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

41.
What we play is life.
Louis Armstrong

42.
The more horrifying this world becomes, the more art becomes abstract.
Klee, Paul

43.
Of all the arts in which the wise excel, nature's chief masterpiece is writing well.
Buckingham, Duke of

44.
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

45.
Why should I buy expensive art when I can make my own.
Piero Milani

46.
I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark would burn out in a brilliant blaze than be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.
London, Jack

47.
All God wants of man is a peaceful heart.
Eckhart, Meister

48.
The artist is a member of the leisured classes who cannot pay for his leisure.
Connolly, Cyril

49.
The primary distinction of the artist is that he must actively cultivate that state which most men, necessarily, must avoid: the state of being alone.
Baldwin, James

50.
I have seen, and heard, much of Cockney impudence before now; but never expected to hear a coxcomb ask two hundred guineas for flinging a pot of paint in the public's face.
Ruskin, John
