Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
Through all the world there goes one long cry from the heart of the artist: Give me leave to do my utmost.
Isak Dineson

2.
The highest problem of any art is to cause by appearance the illusion of a higher reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

3.
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

4.
Artists are, above all, men who want to become inhuman.
Apollinaire, Guillaume

5.
It is the cause, not the death that makes the martyr.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

6.
A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.
Proust, Marcel

7.
Nothing is less in our power than the heart, and far from commanding we are forced to obey it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

8.
There must be hearts which know the depths of our being, and swear by us, even when the whole world forsakes us.
Gutzkow

9.
Enjoyed it! One more drink and I'd have been under the host.
Parker, Dorothy

10.
I am an artist I am here to live out loud.
Zola, Emile

11.
Let each man exercise the art he knows.
Aristophanes

12.
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

13.
In art, one idea is as good as another. If one takes the idea of trembling, for instance, all of a sudden most art starts to tremble. Michelangelo starts to tremble. El Greco starts to tremble. All the Impressionists start to tremble.
Kooning, Willem De

14.
Why should I go into details, we have nothing that is not perishable except what our hearts and our intellects endows us with.
Ovid

15.
Art is good when it springs from necessity. This kind of origin is the guarantee of its value; there is no other.
Cassady, Neal

16.
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

17.
Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.
Alfred North Whitehead

18.
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

19.
There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.
Pablo Picasso

20.
Nothing right can be accomplished in art without enthusiasm.
Schumann, Robert

21.
Not even the visionary or mystical experience ever lasts very long. It is for art to capture that experience, to offer it to, in the case of literature, its readers; to be, for a secular, materialist culture, some sort of replacement for what the love of god offers in the world of faith.
Rushdie, Salman

22.
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

23.
As a general truth, it is safe to say that any picture that produces a moral impression is a bad picture.
Goncourt, Edmond and Jules De

24.
Thou art my glory and the exultation of y heart: thou art my hope and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kempis, Thomas

25.
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

26.
The dignity of the artist lies in his duty of keeping awake the sense of wonder in the world. In this long vigil he often has to vary his methods of stimulation; but in this long vigil he is also himself striving against a continual tendency to sleep.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

27.
Artistic growth is, more than it is anything else, a refining of the sense of truthfulness. The stupid believe that to be truthful is easy; only the artist, the great artist, knows how difficult it is.
Cather, Willa

28.
We are not here to triumph by fighting, by strata gem, or by resistance, not to fight with beasts as men. We have fought the beast and have conquered. We have only to conquer now,by suffering. This is the easier victory.
Eliot, T. S.

29.
The public history of modern art is the story of conventional people not knowing what they are dealing with.
Motherwell, Robert

30.
[Abstract art is] a product of the untalented, sold by the unprincipled to the utterly bewildered.
Al Capp

31.
It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance.
Midler, Bette

32.
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

33.
For the outer sense alone perceives visible things and the eye of the heart alone seeds the invisible.
Saint-Victor, Richard of

34.
The art of creation is older than the art of killing.
Voznesensky, Andrei

35.
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

36.
The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art is merely romantic fiction. The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.
Wolfe, Thomas

37.
I never spend more than one hour in a gallery. That is as long as one's power of appreciation persists.
W. Somerset Maugham

38.
Art is a form of catharsis.
Parker, Dorothy

39.
Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them.
Wright, Frank Lloyd

40.
The brain can be easy to buy, but the heart never comes to market.
Lowell, James Russell

41.
Personality is everything in art and poetry.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

42.
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

43.
Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane.
Adorno, Theodor W.

44.
To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
Joseph Chilton Pearce

45.
Love can heal a broken heart.

46.
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.

47.
We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth.
John F. Kennedy

48.
Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

49.
An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.
Waugh, Evelyn

50.
Art, like morality, consists of drawing the line somewhere.
G. K. Chesterton
