Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.
Berle, Adolf

2.
The artistic temperament is a disease that affects amateurs. Artists of a large and wholesome vitality get rid of their art easily, as they breathe easily or perspire easily. But in artists of less force, the thing becomes a pressure, and produces a definite pain, which is called the artistic temperament.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

3.
The highest art is always the most religious, and the greatest artist is always a devout person.
Blackie, Professor

4.
I'm still an artist. I'm never gonna do a shit movie, because I've got my modeling to support me.
Jovovich, Milla

5.
Art the end result of perception, wisdom, intelligence, discipline, hard work, passion, luck, accident, and coincidence.

6.
Artists must be sacrificed to their art.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

7.
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

8.
Great hearts steadily send forth the secret forces that incessantly draw great events.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

9.
Through all the world there goes one long cry from the heart of the artist: Give me leave to do my utmost.
Isak Dineson

10.
Repetition is the death of art.
Robin Green

11.
Art is man's expression of his joy in labor.
Morris, William

12.
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

13.
Making social comment is an artificial place for an artist to start from. If an artist is touched by some social condition, what the artist creates will reflect that, but you can't force it.
Lewitzky, Bella

14.
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

15.
A painting in a museum probably hears more foolish remarks than anything else in the world.
Goncourt, Edmond and Jules De

16.
Art raises its head where creeds relax.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

17.
Look at every path closely and deliberately, then ask ourselves this crucial question: Does this path have a heart? If it does, then the path is good. If it doesn't, it is of no use.
Castaneda, Carlos

18.
Love can heal a broken heart.

19.
Art is a fruit that grows in man, like a fruit on a plant, or a child in its mother's womb.
Arp, Jean

20.
Every artist was first an amateur.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

21.
In art as in love, instinct is enough.
France, Anatole

22.
When I am finishing a picture I hold some God-made object up to it -- a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand -- as a kind of final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it is bad art.
Chagall, Marc

23.
Art, that great undogmatized church.
Key, Ellen

24.
It is the cause, not the death that makes the martyr.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

25.
The object of art is to give life a shape. [Midsummer Nights Dream]
Shakespeare, William

26.
If the wolf had ever come to our back door, he'd have had to bring a picnic lunch.
Anderson, Bill

27.
Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
Einstein, Albert

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.
I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark would burn out in a brilliant blaze than be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.
London, Jack

30.
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

31.
Twentieth-century art may start with nothing, but it flourishes by virtue of its belief in itself, in the possibility of control over what seems essentially uncontrollable, in the coherence of the inchoate, and in its ability to create its own values.
Alvarez, A.

32.
Any artist should be grateful for a na?ve grace which puts him beyond the need to reason elaborately.
Bellow, Saul

33.
An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.
Waugh, Evelyn

34.
The torments of martyrdom are probably most keenly felt by the bystanders.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

35.
The artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
Schumann, Robert

36.
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.

37.
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

38.
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

39.
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

40.
Let each man exercise the art he knows.
Aristophanes

41.
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

42.
Great persecutors are recruited among martyrs whose heads haven't been cut off.
Cioran, E. M.

43.
All art is an imitation of nature.
Seneca

44.
Creative work is play. It is free speculation using materials of one's chosen form.
Stephen Nachmanovitch

45.
Art attracts us only by what it reveals of our most secret self.
Godard, Jean-Luc

46.
Thou art my glory and the exultation of y heart: thou art my hope and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Kempis, Thomas

47.
It's not your painting anymore. It stopped being your painting the moment that you finished it.
Jeff Melvoin

48.
Art for art's sake? I should think so, and more so than ever at the present time. It is the one orderly product which our middling race has produced. It is the cry of a thousand sentinels, the echo from a thousand labyrinths, it is the lighthouse which cannot be hidden... it is the best evidence we can have of our dignity.
Forster, Edward M.

49.
The heart is the best reflective thinker.
Phillips, Wendell

50.
What we play is life.
Louis Armstrong
