Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

2.
While I do not suggest that humanity will ever be able to dispense with its martyrs, I cannot avoid the suspicion that with a little more thought and a little less belief their number may be substantially reduced.
Haldane, John B. S.

3.
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

4.
The sole art that suits me is that which, rising from unrest, tends toward serenity.
Gide, Andre

5.
Faint hearts never win fair ladies.
Proverb, Danish

6.
Only an artist can interpret the meaning of life.
Novalis

7.
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

8.
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

9.
Art distills sensations and embodies it with enhanced meaning.
Barzun, Jacques

10.
Only conservatives believe that subversion is still being carried on in the arts and that society is being shaken by it. Advanced art today is no longer a cause --it contains no moral imperative. There is no virtue in clinging to principles and standards, no vice in selling or in selling out.
Rosenberg, Harold

11.
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

12.
It is either easy or impossible.
Dali, Salvador

13.
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

14.
Many bad artists will tell you that art is life. There's a subtle difference however. You can turn your back on art

15.
What of us lies in the hearts of others is our truest and deepest self.
Herder, Johann Gottfried Von

16.
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

17.
I shut my eyes in order to see.
Paul Gauguin

18.
In free society art is not a weapon. Artists are not engineers of the soul.
Kennedy, John F.

19.
There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate.
Frost, Robert

20.
Illusions are art, for the feeling person, and it is by art that you live, if you do.
Elizabeth Bowen

21.
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

22.
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

23.
The history of modern art is also the history of the progressive loss of art's audience. Art has increasingly become the concern of the artist and the bafflement of the public.
Geldzahler, Henry

24.
I can't work without a model. I won't say I turn my back on nature ruthlessly in order to turn a study into a picture, arranging the colors, enlarging and simplifying; but in the matter of form I am too afraid of departing from the possible and the true.
Gogh, Vincent Van

25.
It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
Woodberry, George E.

26.
The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.
Walt Whitman

27.
Another unsettling element in modern art is that common symptom of immaturity, the dread of doing what has been done before.
Edith Wharton

28.
To write is to become disinterested. There is a certain renunciation in art.
Camus, Albert

29.
I like people and I like them to like me, but I wear my heart where God put it -- on the inside.

30.
The True Artist has the planet for his pedestal; the adventurer, after years of strife, has nothing broader than his shoes.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

31.
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

32.
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

33.
It isn't enough for your heart to break because everybody's heart is broken now.
Ginsberg, Allen

34.
The highest art is always the most religious, and the greatest artist is always a devout person.
Blackie, Professor

35.
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

36.
If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come.
Proverb, Chinese

37.
The essence of all art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure
Baryshnikov, Mikhail

38.
A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.
Proust, Marcel

39.
We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.
Picasso, Pablo

40.
It is all very well, when the pen flows, but then there are the dark days when imagination deserts one, and it is an effort to put anything down on paper. That little you have achieved stares at you at the end of the day, and you know the next morning you will have to scrape it down and start again.
Elizabeth Aston

41.
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Byron, Lord

42.
Art raises its head where creeds relax.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

43.
What is Art? It is the response of man's creative soul to the call of the Real.
Tagore, Rabindranath

44.
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

45.
Martyrdom covers a multitude of sins.
Twain, Mark

46.
The creative artist seems to be almost the only kind of man that you could never meet on neutral ground. You can only meet him as an artist. He sees nothing objectively because his own ego is always in the foreground of every picture.
Chandler, Raymond

47.
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

48.
Great art is never produced for its own sake. It is too difficult to be worth the effort.
Shaw, George Bernard

49.
Art is an absolute mistress; she will not be coquetted with or slighted; she requires the most entire self-devotion, and she repays with grand triumphs.
Cushman, Charlotte Saunders

50.
I know just how frustrating it can be when you're tired and exhausted, but you still want to draw something.
Ward Jenkins
