Best Quotes about Art
The more horrifying this world becomes, the more art becomes abstract.
Klee, Paul
Martyrdom has always been a proof of the intensity, never of the correctness of a belief.
Schnitzler, Arthur
At every party there are two kinds of people -- those who want to go home and those who don't. The trouble is, they are usually married to each other.
Landers, Ann
I do not know what the heart of a rascal may be, but I know what is in the heart of an honest man; it is horrible.
Maistre, Joseph De
What is Art? It is the response of man's creative soul to the call of the Real.
Tagore, Rabindranath
Life isn't long enough for love and art.
W. Somerset Maugham
Had we never lov'd sae kindly, Had we never lov'd sae blindly, Never met -- or never parted -- we had never been broken-hearted.
Burns, Robert
The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist's way of scribbling Kilroy was here on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.
Faulkner, William
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
Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
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
Is there not an art, a music, and a stream of words that shalt be life, the acknowledged voice of life?
Wordsworth, William
Enjoyed it! One more drink and I'd have been under the host.
Parker, Dorothy
One of the most striking signs of the decay of art is when we see its separate forms jumbled together.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
The first mistake of Art is to assume that it's serious.
Bangs, Lester
Personality is everything in art and poetry.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
A work of art is above all an adventure of the mind.
Ionesco, Eugene
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
He bores me. He ought to have stuck to his flying machine. [On Leonardo Da Vinci]
Renoir, Pierre Auguste
Why should I buy expensive art when I can make my own.
Piero Milani
Bad artists always admire each other's work. They call it being large-minded and free from prejudice. But a truly great artist cannot conceive of life being shown, or beauty fashioned, under any conditions other than those he has selected.
Wilde, Oscar
One must be a living man and a posthumous artist.
Cocteau, Jean
Art never improves, but the material of art is never quite the same.
Eliot, T. S.
What distinguishes modern art from the art of other ages is criticism.
Paz, Octavio
Wherever art appears, life disappears.
Picabia, Francis
It is not hard to understand modern art. If it hangs on a wall it's a painting, and if you can walk around it it's a sculpture.
Within your heart, keep one still, secret spot where dreams may go.
Driscoll, Louise
Art is the human disposition of sensible or intelligible matter for an esthetic end.
Joyce, James
As the twentieth century ends, commerce and culture are coming closer together. The distinction between life and art has been eroded by fifty years of enhanced communications, ever-improving reproduction technologies and increasing wealth.
Bayley, Stephen
The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, while the heart of the fool is in the house of entertainment.
Bible
Modern art is what happens when painters stop looking at girls and persuade themselves they have a better idea.
Ciardi, John
It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
Woodberry, George E.
In every veil you see, the Divine Beauty is concealed, making every heart a slave to him. In love to him the heart finds its life; in desire for him the soul finds its happiness. The heart which loves a fair one here, though it knows it not, is really his lover.
Jami
Art the end result of perception, wisdom, intelligence, discipline, hard work, passion, luck, accident, and coincidence.
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
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
Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
Churchill, Winston
Thou art my glory and the exultation of y heart: thou art my hope and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kempis, Thomas
In art there are tears that lie too deep for thought.
Kronenberger, Louis
The hidden harmony is better than the obvious.
Pope, Alexander
I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.
Orson Welles
Charity is in the heart of man, and righteousness in the path of men. Pity the man who has lost his path and does not follow it and who has lost his heart and does not know how to recover it. When people's dogs and chicks are lost they go out and look for them and yet the people who have lost their hearts do not go out and look for them. The principle of self-cultivation consists in nothing but trying to look for the lost heart.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)
The powerful play goes on -- and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?
The artist is the opposite of the politically minded individual, the opposite of the reformer, the opposite of the idealist. The artist does not tinker with the universe; he recreates it out of his own experience and understanding of life.
Miller, Henry
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
The less you open your heart to others, the more your heart suffers.
Chopra, Deepak
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
A Great man is he who does not lose his childlike heart.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)
This is the artist, then, life's hungry man, the glutton of eternity, beauty's miser, glory's slave.
Wolfe, Thomas
What distinguishes a great artist from a weak one is first their sensibility and tenderness; second, their imagination, and third, their industry.
Ruskin, John
