More quotes by Auguste Rodin
In front of the model I work with the same will to reproduce truth as if I were making a portrait. I do not correct nature, I incorporate myself into it it directs me. I can only work with a model. The sight of human forms nourishes and comforts me.
Auguste Rodin
Inside you there's an artist you don't know about. He's not interested in how things look different in moonlight.
Auguste Rodin
True artists are almost the only men who do their work for pleasure.
Auguste Rodin
The modes of expression of men of genius differ as much as their souls, and it is impossible to say that in some among them, drawing and color are better or worse than in others.
Auguste Rodin
The work of art is already within the block of marble. I just chop off whatever isn't needed.
Auguste Rodin
In art, immorality cannot exist. Art is always sacred.
Auguste Rodin
The human body is first and foremost a mirror to the soul and its greatest beauty comes from that.
Auguste Rodin
Mere exactitude, of which photography and moulage [life casting] are the lowest forms, does not inspire feelings.
Auguste Rodin
The artist is the confidant of nature, flowers carry on dialogues with him through the graceful bending of their stems and the harmoniously tinted nuances of their blossoms, Every flower has a cordial word which nature directs towards him.
Auguste Rodin
My drawings are the result of my sculpture.
Auguste Rodin
The main thing is to be moved, to love, to hope, to tremble, to live. Be a man before being an artist!
Auguste Rodin
There should be no argument in regard to morality in art. There is no morality in nature.
Auguste Rodin
The only principle in art is to copy what you see. Dealers in aesthetics to the contrary, every other method is fatal.
Auguste Rodin
Art is the pleasure of a spirit that enters nature and discovers that it too has a soul.
Auguste Rodin
If we now seek the spiritual significance of the technique of Michelangelo we shall find that his sculpture expressed restless energy.
Auguste Rodin
Even with all the documents, you can never forge nature
Auguste Rodin
He who is discouraged after a failure is not a real artist.
Auguste Rodin
A mediocre man copying nature will never produce a work of art, because he really looks without seeing, and though he may have noted each detail minutely, the result will be flat and without character... the artist on the contrary, sees that is to say, his eye, grafted on his heart, reads deeply into the bosom of nature.
Auguste Rodin
One must work, nothing but work, and one must have patience.
Auguste Rodin
I know very well that one must fight, for one is often in contradiction to the spirit of the age.
Auguste Rodin
