Motivational Quotes
Art
Any artist should be grateful for a na?ve grace which puts him beyond the need to reason elaborately.

Best Quotes about Art
Whatever an artist's personal feelings are, as soon as an artist fills a certain area on the canvas or circumscribes it, he becomes historical. He acts from or upon other artists.
Kooning, Willem De
An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.
Waugh, Evelyn
There is nothing enduring in life for a women except what she builds in a man's heart.
Anderson, Judith
Art for art's sake? I should think so, and more so than ever at the present time. It is the one orderly product which our middling race has produced. It is the cry of a thousand sentinels, the echo from a thousand labyrinths, it is the lighthouse which cannot be hidden... it is the best evidence we can have of our dignity.
Forster, Edward M.
I merely took the energy it takes to pout and wrote some blues.
Duke Ellington
You're confusing product with process. Most people, when they criticize, whether they like it or hate it, they're talking about product. That's not art, that's the result of art. Art, to whatever degree we can get a handle on (I'm not sure that we really can) is a process. It begins in the heart and the mind with the eyes and hands.
Jeff Melvoin
The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.
Connolly, Cyril
Martyrs, my friend, have to choose between being forgotten, mocked or used. As for being understood -- never.
Camus, Albert
It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.
Gogh, Vincent Van
If we keep an open mind, too much is likely to fall into it.
Barney, Natalie Clifford
I choose a block of marble and chop off whatever I don't need. [when asked how he managed to make his remarkable statues.]
Rodin, Auguste
Art is either plagiarism or revolution.
Paul Gauguin
All God wants of man is a peaceful heart.
Eckhart, Meister
Creative work is play. It is free speculation using materials of one's chosen form.
Stephen Nachmanovitch
Contrary to popular belief an artist is never ahead of his time, but most people are far behind theirs.
Varese, Edward
The first mistake of Art is to assume that it's serious.
Bangs, Lester
Art is skill, that is the first meaning of the word.
Gill, Eric
In free society art is not a weapon. Artists are not engineers of the soul.
Kennedy, John F.
The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.
Berle, Adolf
The more horrifying this world becomes, the more art becomes abstract.
Klee, Paul
In other countries, art and literature are left to a lot of shabby bums living in attics and feeding on booze and spaghetti, but in America the successful writer or picture-painter is indistinguishable from any other decent businessman.
Lewis, Sinclair
Good art however immoral is wholly a thing of virtue. Good art can NOT be immoral. By good art I mean art that bears true witness, I mean the art that is most precise.
Pound, Ezra
Some people carry their heart in their head and some carry their head in their heart. The trick is to keep them apart yet working together.
Hare, David
A work of art is above all an adventure of the mind.
Ionesco, Eugene
The greater the decrease in the social significance of an art form, the sharper the distinction between criticism and enjoyment by the public. The conventional is uncritically enjoyed, and the truly new is criticized with aversion.
Benjamin, Walter
The heart always sees before than the head can see.
Carlyle, Thomas
The artist must conceive with warmth yet execute with coolness.
Winkelmann
Abstract Art: A product of the untalented, sold by the unprincipled to the utterly bewildered.
Capp, Al
Not everything has a name. Some things lead us into a realm beyond words.
Solzhenitsyn, Alexander
The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist.
Jacob, Max
Art imitates Nature in this; not to dare is to dwindle.
Updike, John
Art is merely the refuge which the ingenious have invented, when they were supplied with food and women, to escape the tediousness of life.
W. Somerset Maugham
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.
Painting: The art of protecting flat surfaces from the weather and exposing them to the critic.
Ambrose Bierce
It's not your painting anymore. It stopped being your painting the moment that you finished it.
Jeff Melvoin
Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
Einstein, Albert
I have joined my heart to thee: all that exists are thou. O Lord, beloved of my heart, thou art the home of all; where indeed is the heart in which thou dost not dwell?
Jafar
A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world.
Edmond de Goncourt
The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, while the heart of the fool is in the house of entertainment.
Bible
It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
Artists must be sacrificed to their art.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace.
Shaw, George Bernard
Repetition is the death of art.
Robin Green
Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.
Miller, Henry
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
I say that good painters imitated nature; but that bad ones vomited it.
Miguel de Cervantes
Art the end result of perception, wisdom, intelligence, discipline, hard work, passion, luck, accident, and coincidence.
As noble Art has survived noble nature, so too she marches ahead of it, fashioning and awakening by her inspiration. Before Truth sends her triumphant light into the depths of the heart, imagination catches its rays, and the peaks of humanity will be glowing when humid night still lingers in the valleys.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
Art is not merely an imitation of the reality of nature, but in truth a metaphysical supplement to the reality of nature, placed alongside thereof for its conquest.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
For the outer sense alone perceives visible things and the eye of the heart alone seeds the invisible.
Saint-Victor, Richard of
