Motivational Quotes
Art
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

Best Quotes about Art
In free society art is not a weapon. Artists are not engineers of the soul.
Kennedy, John F.
Art is an experience, not the formulation of a problem.
Anderson, Lindsay
What stronger breastplate than a heart untainted. [Henry Iv]
Shakespeare, William
All great art, and today all great artlessness, must appear extreme to the mass of men, as we know them today. It springs from the anguish of great souls. From the souls of men not formed, but deformed in factories whose inspiration is pelf.
Trocchi, Alexander
Classic art was the art of necessity: modern romantic art bears the stamp of caprice and chance.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.
West, Rebecca
I like people and I like them to like me, but I wear my heart where God put it -- on the inside.
I will soon be going out to shape all the singing tomorrows.
Peri, Gabriel
Is there not an art, a music, and a stream of words that shalt be life, the acknowledged voice of life?
Wordsworth, William
Painting: The art of protecting flat surfaces from the weather and exposing them to the critic.
Ambrose Bierce
Nothing is less in our power than the heart, and far from commanding we are forced to obey it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
Martyrs, my friend, have to choose between being forgotten, mocked or used. As for being understood -- never.
Camus, Albert
The great artist is a slave to his ideals.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
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
Those who write for lucre or fame are grosser than the cartel robbers, for they steal the genius of the people, which is its will to resist evil.
Dahlberg, Edward
Art is a form of catharsis.
Parker, Dorothy
A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world.
Edmond de Goncourt
In art as in love, instinct is enough.
France, Anatole
Impartial. Unable to perceive any promise of personal advantage from espousing either side of a controversy.
Bierce, Ambrose
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
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
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
The powerful play goes on -- and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?
Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
Churchill, Winston
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
An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.
Warhol, Andy
Art is too serious to be taken seriously.
Reinhardt, Ad
The artist is a member of the leisured classes who cannot pay for his leisure.
Connolly, Cyril
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
The martyr cannot be dishonored. Every lash inflicted is a tongue of fame; every prison a more illustrious abode.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Within your heart, keep one still, secret spot where dreams may go.
Driscoll, Louise
Not the glittering weapon fights the fight, but rather the hero's heart.
Proverb
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
The True Artist has the planet for his pedestal; the adventurer, after years of strife, has nothing broader than his shoes.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
The heart always sees before than the head can see.
Carlyle, Thomas
A primary function of art and thought is to liberate the individual from the tyranny of his culture in the environmental sense and to permit him to stand beyond it in an autonomy of perception and judgment.
Trilling, Lionel
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
Each of the arts whose office is to refine, purify, adorn, embellish and grace life is under the patronage of a muse, no god being found worthy to preside over them.
Farnham, Eliza
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
Faint hearts never win fair ladies.
Proverb, Danish
All art is an imitation of nature.
Seneca
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
No human beings more dangerous than those who have suffered for a belief: the great persecutors are recruited from the martyrs not quite beheaded. Far from diminishing the appetite for power, suffering exasperates it.
Cioran, E. M.
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
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
The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel.
Piet Mondrian
Progressive art can assist people to learn not only about the objective forces at work in the society in which they live, but also about the intensely social character of their interior lives. Ultimately, it can propel people toward social emancipation.
Davis, Angela Y.
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.
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
I'm the artist formally known as Beck. I have a genius wig. When I put that wig on, then the true genius emerges. I don't have enough hair to be a genius. I think you have to have hair going everywhere.
Beck
