Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
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

2.
A Great man is he who does not lose his childlike heart.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)

3.
Ads are the cave art of the twentieth century.
Mcluhan, Marshall

4.
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

5.
Drink, and dance and laugh and lie, love the reeling midnight through, for tomorrow we shall die! (But, alas, we never do.)
Parker, Dorothy

6.
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.

7.
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing: we know this in countless ways.
Pascal, Blaise

8.
Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.
Alfred North Whitehead

9.
Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.
Cicero

10.
It is the cause, not the death that makes the martyr.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

11.
As for types like my own, obscurely motivated by the conviction that our existence was worthless if we didn't make a turning point of it, we were assigned to the humanities, to poetry, philosophy, painting -- the nursery games of humankind, which had to be left behind when the age of science began. The humanities would be called upon to choose a wallpaper for the crypt, as the end drew near.
Bellow, Saul

12.
Illusions are art, for the feeling person, and it is by art that you live, if you do.
Elizabeth Bowen

13.
Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.
Andre Gide

14.
By the time a partnership dissolves, it has dissolved.
Updike, John

15.
One of the most striking signs of the decay of art is when we see its separate forms jumbled together.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

16.
What distinguishes a great artist from a weak one is first their sensibility and tenderness; second, their imagination, and third, their industry.
Ruskin, John

17.
The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.
Berle, Adolf

18.
Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize.
Kael, Pauline

19.
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

20.
Personality is everything in art and poetry.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

21.
O, had I but followed the arts!
Shakespeare, William

22.
All art is an imitation of nature.
Seneca

23.
For us artists there waits the joyous compromise through art with all that wounded or defeated us in daily life; in this way, not to evade destiny, as the ordinary people try to do, but to fulfil it in its true potential --the imagination.
Durrell, Lawrence

24.
Every artist was first an amateur.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

25.
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
Picasso, Pablo

26.
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)

27.
Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting with the gift of speech.
Simonides

28.
The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist.
Jacob, Max

29.
Art is parasitic on life, just as criticism is parasitic on art.
Tynan, Kenneth

30.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Pablo Picasso

31.
Any artist should be grateful for a na?ve grace which puts him beyond the need to reason elaborately.
Bellow, Saul

32.
Each painting has its own way of evolving...When the painting is finished, the subject reaveals itself.
William Baziotes

33.
A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent upon arriving. A good artist lets his intuition lead him wherever it wants.
Lao-Tzu

34.
Art at its most significant is a distant early warning system that can always be relied on to tell the old culture what is beginning to happen.
Mcluhan, Marshall

35.
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Byron, Lord

36.
Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp.
Dubuffet, Jean

37.
The head learns new things, but the heart forever practices old experiences.
Beecher, Henry Ward

38.
The object of art is to give life a shape. [Midsummer Nights Dream]
Shakespeare, William

39.
Martyrdom covers a multitude of sins.
Twain, Mark

40.
The idea of a mass audience was really an invention of the Industrial Revolution.
David Cronenberg

41.
Art is the symbol of the two noblest human efforts: to construct and to refrain from destruction.
Weil, Simone

42.
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

43.
Thou art my glory and the exultation of y heart: thou art my hope and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kempis, Thomas

44.
The powerful play goes on -- and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?

45.
An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.
Waugh, Evelyn

46.
Wherever art appears, life disappears.
Picabia, Francis

47.
If we are to change our world view, images have to change. The artist now has a very important job to do. He's not a little peripheral figure entertaining rich people, he's really needed.
Hockney, David

48.
The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel.
Piet Mondrian

49.
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

50.
Art is too serious to be taken seriously.
Reinhardt, Ad
