More quotes by Auguste Rodin
In art, immorality cannot exist. Art is always sacred.
Auguste Rodin
I know very well that one must fight, for one is often in contradiction to the spirit of the age.
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
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
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
The delicate droop of the petals standing out in relief, is like the eyelid of a child.
Auguste Rodin
An artist worthy of the name should express all the truth of nature, not only the exterior truth, but also, and above all, the inner truth.
Auguste Rodin
One must work, nothing but work, and one must have patience.
Auguste Rodin
Mystery is like a kind of atmosphere which bathes the greatest works of the masters.
Auguste Rodin
I would have to talk for a year to repeat a single on of my works with words.
Auguste Rodin
There should be no argument in regard to morality in art. There is no morality in nature.
Auguste Rodin
I invent nothing, I rediscover.
Auguste Rodin
The artist has only to trust his eyes.
Auguste Rodin
The more simple we are, the more complete we become.
Auguste Rodin
Even with all the documents, you can never forge nature
Auguste Rodin
Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely.
Auguste Rodin
The sculptor represents the transition from one pose to another he indicates how insensibly the first glides into the second. In his work we still see a part of what was and we discover a part of what is to be.
Auguste Rodin
My drawings are the result of my sculpture.
Auguste Rodin
If the artist succeeds in producing the impression of a movement which takes several moments for accomplishment, his work is certainly much less conventional than the scientific image, where time is abruptly suspended.
Auguste Rodin
Where did I learn to understand sculpture? In the woods by looking at the trees, along roads by observing the formation of clouds, in the studio by studying the model, everywhere except in the schools.
Auguste Rodin
