Art

No art can be noble which is incapable of expressing thought, and no art is capable of expressing thought which does not change.
- Ruskin, John
Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
If I spit, they will take my spit and frame it as great art.
Picasso, Pablo

2.
What I dream of is an art of balance.
Henri Matisse

3.
Repetition is the death of art.
Robin Green

4.
The greater the decrease in the social significance of an art form, the sharper the distinction between criticism and enjoyment by the public. The conventional is uncritically enjoyed, and the truly new is criticized with aversion.
Benjamin, Walter

5.
In art as in love, instinct is enough.
France, Anatole

6.
Great art is never produced for its own sake. It is too difficult to be worth the effort.
Shaw, George Bernard

7.
But the one thing you should. not do is to suppose that when something is wrong with the arts, it is wrong with the arts ONLY.
Pound, Ezra

8.
It is the cause, not the death that makes the martyr.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

9.
To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
Joseph Chilton Pearce

10.
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
Henry Ward Beecher

11.
One must be a living man and a posthumous artist.
Cocteau, Jean

12.
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.

13.
Follow your heart, but be quiet for a while first. Ask questions, then feel the answer. Learn to trust your heart.

14.
Art, whose honesty must work through artifice, cannot avoid cheating truth.
Riding, Laura

15.
I can't tell you what art does and how it does it, but I know that often art has judged the judges, pleaded revenge to the innocent and shown to the future what the past suffered, so that it has never been forgotten. Art, when it functions like this, becomes a meeting-place of the invisible, the irreducible, the enduring, guts, and honor.
Berger, John

16.
Every time I paint a portrait I lose a friend.
John Singer Sargent

17.
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

18.
No manager ever won no ballgames.
Anderson, Sparky

19.
Thou art my glory and the exultation of y heart: thou art my hope and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kempis, Thomas

20.
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

21.
Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.
West, Rebecca

22.
I am an artist I am here to live out loud.
Zola, Emile

23.
The artist is a member of the leisured classes who cannot pay for his leisure.
Connolly, Cyril

24.
Experiment is necessary in establishing an academy, but certain principles must apply to this business of art as to any other business which affects the artistic tic sense of the community. Great art speaks a language which every intelligent person can understand. The people who call themselves modernists today speak a different language.
Menzies, Robert

25.
The artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
Schumann, Robert

26.
Love can heal a broken heart.

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

28.
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more -- more unseen forms become manifest to him.
Rumi, Jalal-Uddin

29.
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

30.
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

31.
Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.
Miller, Henry

32.
It is either easy or impossible.
Dali, Salvador

33.
The great artist is a slave to his ideals.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

34.
Play the man, Master Ridley; we shall this day light such a candle, by God's grace, in England, as I trust shall never be put out.
Latimer, Bishop Hugh

35.
It isn't enough for your heart to break because everybody's heart is broken now.
Ginsberg, Allen

36.
The brain can be easy to buy, but the heart never comes to market.
Lowell, James Russell

37.
Is there not an art, a music, and a stream of words that shalt be life, the acknowledged voice of life?
Wordsworth, William

38.
I suppose no matter what I'm drawing, there will always be some sort of question in my mind about it. A work of art (even cartoon art)is never really finished; it is abandoned.
Brooke McEldowney

39.
In our own hearts, we mold the whole world's hereafters; and in our own hearts we fashion our own gods.
Melville, Herman

40.
The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.
Walt Whitman

41.
Contrary to popular belief an artist is never ahead of his time, but most people are far behind theirs.
Varese, Edward

42.
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

43.
I shut my eyes in order to see.
Paul Gauguin

44.
Life isn't long enough for love and art.
W. Somerset Maugham

45.
Personality is everything in art and poetry.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

46.
Art is so wonderfully irrational, exuberantly pointless, but necessary all the same. Pointless and yet necessary, that's hard for a puritan to understand.
Grass, Gunther

47.
The highest problem of any art is to cause by appearance the illusion of a higher reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

48.
Within your heart, keep one still, secret spot where dreams may go.
Driscoll, Louise

49.
Nothing is less in our power than the heart, and far from commanding we are forced to obey it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

50.
Modern art is what happens when painters stop looking at girls and persuade themselves they have a better idea.
Ciardi, John
