More quotes by Auguste Rodin
The artist has only to trust his eyes.
Auguste Rodin
Where shall we begin? There is no beginning. Start where you arrive. Stop before what entices you. And work! You will enter little by little into the entirety. Method will be born in proportion to your interest.
Auguste Rodin
Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely.
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
I would have to talk for a year to repeat a single on of my works with words.
Auguste Rodin
There is no need to create. Genius comes only to those who know how to use their eyes and their intelligence.
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
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
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 artist enriches the soul of humanity. The artist delights people with a thousand different shades of feeling.
Auguste Rodin
How painful it is to find that my figure can be of no help to my future... how painful to see it rejected on account of a slanderous suspicion!
Auguste Rodin
Mystery is like a kind of atmosphere which bathes the greatest works of the masters.
Auguste Rodin
There is nothing ugly in art except that which is without character, that is to say, that which offers no outer or inner truth.
Auguste Rodin
I grant you that the artist does not see Nature as she appears to the vulgar, because his emotion reveals to him the hidden truths beneath appearances.
Auguste Rodin
To the artist there is never anything ugly in nature
Auguste Rodin
There should be no argument in regard to morality in art. There is no morality in nature.
Auguste Rodin
I am like a moon that shines on an immense, unknown sea where ships never pass
Auguste Rodin
Mere exactitude, of which photography and moulage [life casting] are the lowest forms, does not inspire feelings.
Auguste Rodin
The human body is first and foremost a mirror to the soul and its greatest beauty comes from that.
Auguste Rodin
Recently I have taken to isolating limbs, the torso. Why am I blamed for it? Why is the head allowed and not portions of the body? Every part of the human figure is expressive.
Auguste Rodin
