More quotes by Claude Monet
When I look at nature I feel as if I'll be able to paint it all, note it all down, and then you might as well forget it once you're working.
Claude Monet
To see we must forget the name of the thing we are looking at.
Claude Monet
I'm enjoying the most perfect tranquillity, free from all worries, and in consequence would like to stay this way forever, in a peaceful corner of the countryside like this.
Claude Monet
It goes without saying that I will do anything at any price to pull myself out of a situation like this [rejection] so that I can start work immediately on my next Salon picture and ensure that such a thing should not happen again.
Claude Monet
What can be said about a man who is interested in nothing but his painting? It's a pity if a man can only interest himself in one thing. But I can't do any thing else. I have only one interest.
Claude Monet
I still have a lot of pleasure doing them, but as time goes by I come to appreciate more clearly which paintings are good and which should be discarded.
Claude Monet
Gardening was something I learned in my youth when I was unhappy. I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.
Claude Monet
My work is always better when I am alone and follow my own impressions.
Claude Monet
I know that to paint the sea really well, you need to look at it every hour of every day in the same place so that you can understand its way in that particular spot and that is why I am working on the same motifs over and over again, four or six times even.
Claude Monet
I'm working hard with more determination than ever. My success at the Salon led to my selling several paintings and since your absence I have made 800 francs I hope, when I have contracts with more dealers, it will be better still.
Claude Monet
No, I'm not a great painter. Neither am I a great poet.
Claude Monet
It's enough to drive you crazy, trying to depict the weather, the atmosphere, the ambience.
Claude Monet
I would advise young artists to paint as they can, as long as they can, without being afraid of painting badly.
Claude Monet
Getting up at 4 in the morning, I slave away all day until by the evening I'm exhausted, and I end by forgetting all my responsibilities, thinking only of the work I've set out to do.
Claude Monet
I must have flowers, always, and always.
Claude Monet
What could be said about me...a man to whom only his painting matters? And of course his garden and his flowers as well.
Claude Monet
Listening only to my instincts, I discovered superb things.
Claude Monet
All of a sudden I had the revelation of how enchanting my pond was.
Claude Monet
As for myself, I met with as much success as I ever could have wanted. In other words, I was enthusiastically run-down by every critic of the period.
Claude Monet
When it is dark, it seems to me as if I were dying, and I can't think any more.
Claude Monet
