For me, a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes at any moment.

More quotes by Claude Monet
My heart is forever in Giverny.
Claude Monet
It is a tragedy that we live in a world where physical courage is so common, and moral courage is so rare.
Claude Monet
I haven't many years left ahead of me and I must devote all my time to painting, in the hope of achieving something worthwhile in the end, something if possible that will satisfy me.
Claude Monet
It was at home I learned the little I know. Schools always appeared to me like a prison, and never could I make up my mind to stay there, not even for four hours a day, when the sunshine was inviting, the sea smooth, and when it was joy to run about the cliffs in the free air, or to paddle in the water.
Claude Monet
No, I'm not a great painter. Neither am I a great poet.
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 have once more taken up things that can't be done: water with grasses weaving on the bottom. But I'm always tackling that sort of thing!
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
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
I've done what I could as a painter and that seems to me to be sufficient. I don't want to be compared to the great masters of the past, and my painting is open to criticism that's enough.
Claude Monet
My work is always better when I am alone and follow my own impressions.
Claude Monet
I despise the opinion of the press and the so-called critics.
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
I am pleased with the exhibition... everything on display was sold for a good price to decent people. It has been a long time since I believed that you could educate public taste.
Claude Monet
One day I am satisfied, the next day I find it all bad still I hope that some day I will find some of them good.
Claude Monet
I know well enough in advance that you'll find my paintings perfect. I know that if they are exhibited they'll be a great success, but I couldn't be more indifferent to it since I know they are bad, I'm certain of it.
Claude Monet
I want to paint the air in which the bridge, the house and the boat are to be found - the beauty of the air around them, and that is nothing less than the impossible.
Claude Monet
The point is to know how to use the colours, the choice of which is, when all's said and done, a matter of habit.
Claude Monet
I want the unobtainable. Other artists paint a bridge, a house, a boat, and that's the end. They are finished. I want to paint the air which surrounds the bridge, the house, the boat, the beauty of the air in which these objects are located, and that is nothing short of impossible.
Claude Monet
I'm in fine fettle and fired with a desire to paint.
Claude Monet
