Art

All paths are the same, leading nowhere. Therefore, pick a path with heart!
- Castaneda, Carlos
Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
The sole art that suits me is that which, rising from unrest, tends toward serenity.
Gide, Andre

2.
Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize.
Kael, Pauline

3.
Art is a reality, not a definition; inasmuch as it approaches a reality, it approaches perfection, and inasmuch as it approaches a mere definition, it is imperfect and untrue.
Haydon, Benjamin

4.
Art has an enemy called ignorance.
Johnson, Ben

5.
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

6.
Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything.
Eugene Delacroix

7.
Where are you searching for me, friend? Look! Here am I right within you. Not in temple, nor in mosque, not in Kaaba nor Kailas, but here right within you am I.
Kabir

8.
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

9.
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.

10.
No sheath shall hold what finds its home in flesh.
Proverb

11.
The heart that truly loves never forgets.
Proverb

12.
I merely took the energy it takes to pout and wrote some blues.
Duke Ellington

13.
Enjoyed it! One more drink and I'd have been under the host.
Parker, Dorothy

14.
The work of art, just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning, seems to me devoid of value if it does not offer the hardness, the rigidity, the regularity, the luster on every interior and exterior facet, of the crystal.
Breton, Andre

15.
Art is the human disposition of sensible or intelligible matter for an esthetic end.
Joyce, James

16.
Art forms of the past were really considered elitist. Bach did not compose for the masses, neither did Beethoven. It was always for patrons, aristocrats, and royalty. Now we have a sort of democratic version of that, which is to say that the audience is so splintered in its interests.
David Cronenberg

17.
The final purpose of art is to intensify, even, if necessary, to exacerbate, the moral consciousness of people.
Mailer, Norman

18.
By the time a partnership dissolves, it has dissolved.
Updike, John

19.
There is no true expertise in the humanities without knowing all of the humanities. Art is a vast, ancient interconnected web-work, a fabricated tradition. Over-concentration on any one point is a distortion.
Paglia, Camille

20.
With an apple I will astonish Paris.
Cezanne, Paul

21.
Fine art, that exists for itself alone, is art in a final state of impotence. If nobody, including the artist, acknowledges art as a means of knowing the world, then art is relegated to a kind of rumpus room of the mind and the irresponsibility of the artist and the irrelevance of art to actual living becomes part and parcel of the practice of art.
Carter, Angela

22.
Martyrdom has always been a proof of the intensity, never of the correctness of a belief.
Schnitzler, Arthur

23.
Repetition is the death of art.
Robin Green

24.
I see little of more importance to the future of our country and of civilization than full recognition of the place of the artist. If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.
Kennedy, John F.

25.
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

26.
An artist is a creature driven by demons. He doesn't know why they choose him and he's usually too busy to wonder why.
Faulkner, William

27.
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

28.
Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future.
Ballard, J. G.

29.
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

30.
Art is a selective re-creation of reality according to an artist's metaphysical value-judgments. An artist recreates those aspects of reality which represent his fundamental view of man's nature.
Rand, Ayn

31.
Through all the world there goes one long cry from the heart of the artist: Give me leave to do my utmost.
Isak Dineson

32.
What is art but life upon the larger scale, the higher. When, graduating up in a spiral line of still expanding and ascending gyres, it pushes toward the intense significance of all things, hungry for the infinite?
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

33.
I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.
Frida Kahlo

34.
Each work of art excludes the world, concentrates attention on itself. For the time it is the only thing worth doing --to do just that; be it a sonnet, a statue, a landscape, an outline head of Caesar, or an oration. Presently we return to the sight of another that globes itself into a whole as did the first, for example, a beautiful garden; and nothing seems worth doing in life but laying out a garden.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

35.
O, had I but followed the arts!
Shakespeare, William

36.
I like people and I like them to like me, but I wear my heart where God put it -- on the inside.

37.
Only an artist can interpret the meaning of life.
Novalis

38.
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

39.
The great artist is a slave to his ideals.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

40.
Whether a party can have much success without a woman present I must ask others to decide, but one thing is certain, no party is any fun unless seasoned with folly.
Erasmus, Desiderius

41.
A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world.
Edmond de Goncourt

42.
It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
Woodberry, George E.

43.
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Byron, Lord

44.
There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate.
Frost, Robert

45.
It is a weakness that I lead from my heart, and not my head?
Diana, Princess of Wales

46.
Technology adds nothing to art. Two thousand years ago, I could tell you a story, and at any point during the story I could stop, and ask, Now do you want the hero to be kidnapped, or not? But that would, of course, have ruined the story. Part of the experience of being entertained is sitting back and plugging into someone else's vision.
Penn Jillette

47.
Art is too serious to be taken seriously.
Reinhardt, Ad

48.
It is time for us all to stand and cheer for the doer, the achiever -- the one who recognizes the challenges and does something about it.
Lombardi, Vince

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 never improves, but the material of art is never quite the same.
Eliot, T. S.
