Best Quotes about Art
If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come.
Proverb, Chinese
The artist is a member of the leisured classes who cannot pay for his leisure.
Connolly, Cyril
It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
Woodberry, George E.
Nature is inside art as its content, not outside as its model.
Frye, Northrop
No sheath shall hold what finds its home in flesh.
Proverb
An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.
Waugh, Evelyn
He bores me. He ought to have stuck to his flying machine. [On Leonardo Da Vinci]
Renoir, Pierre Auguste
A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world.
Edmond de Goncourt
If I spit, they will take my spit and frame it as great art.
Picasso, Pablo
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
Every time I paint a portrait I lose a friend.
John Singer Sargent
The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.
Connolly, Cyril
I like people and I like them to like me, but I wear my heart where God put it -- on the inside.
An artist is a creature driven by demons. He doesn't know why they choose him and he's usually too busy to wonder why.
Faulkner, William
The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.
Walt Whitman
Faint hearts never win fair ladies.
Proverb, Danish
In art there are tears that lie too deep for thought.
Kronenberger, Louis
The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.
Berle, Adolf
Martyrdom has always been a proof of the intensity, never of the correctness of a belief.
Schnitzler, Arthur
Art raises its head where creeds relax.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Some people carry their heart in their head and some carry their head in their heart. The trick is to keep them apart yet working together.
Hare, David
Martyrs, my friend, have to choose between being forgotten, mocked or used. As for being understood -- never.
Camus, Albert
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
In any society, the artist has a responsibility. His effectiveness is certainly limited and a painter or writer cannot change the world. But they can keep an essential margin of non-conformity alive. Thanks to them the powerful can never affirm that everyone agrees with their acts. That small difference is important.
Bunuel, Luis
Many bad artists will tell you that art is life. There's a subtle difference however. You can turn your back on art
A painting in a museum probably hears more foolish remarks than anything else in the world.
Goncourt, Edmond and Jules De
It's not your painting anymore. It stopped being your painting the moment that you finished it.
Jeff Melvoin
The focus should be on the players. I'm here a long time. You can call me in the summer. Our seniors will be gone.
Smith, Dean
Another unsettling element in modern art is that common symptom of immaturity, the dread of doing what has been done before.
Edith Wharton
Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
Einstein, Albert
Art is an experience, not the formulation of a problem.
Anderson, Lindsay
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
It is either easy or impossible.
Dali, Salvador
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.
Surely all art is the result of one's having been in danger, of having gone through an experience all the way to the end, where no one can go any further.
Rilke, Rainer Maria
The idea of a mass audience was really an invention of the Industrial Revolution.
David Cronenberg
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
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
It is a weakness that I lead from my heart, and not my head?
Diana, Princess of Wales
Personality is everything in art and poetry.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Their is a road from the eye to heart that does not go through the intellect.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Enjoyed it! One more drink and I'd have been under the host.
Parker, Dorothy
Any work that aspires, however humbly, to the condition of art should carry its justification in every line.
Conrad, Joseph
The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist's way of scribbling Kilroy was here on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.
Faulkner, William
Contrary to popular belief an artist is never ahead of his time, but most people are far behind theirs.
Varese, Edward
I am as content to die for God's eternal truth on the scaffold as in any other way.
Brown, John Mason
The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Art distills sensations and embodies it with enhanced meaning.
Barzun, Jacques
It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.
Gogh, Vincent Van
If I didn't start painting, I would have raised chickens.
Moses, Grandma
