More quotes by Henry Moore

Image
In my opinion, everything, every shape, every bit of natural form, animals, people, pebbles, shells, anything you like are all things that can help you to make a sculpture.
Henry Moore
Image
One never knows what each day is going to bring. The important thing is to be open and ready for it.
Henry Moore
Image
To be an artist is to believe in life.
Henry Moore
Image
I find drawing a useful outlet for ideas for which there is not time enough to realize as sculpture... And I sometimes draw just for its own enjoyment.
Henry Moore
Image
To know one thing, you must know the opposite.
Henry Moore
Image
The secret of life is to have a task, something you devote your entire life to, something you bring everything to, every minute of the day for the rest of your life. And the most important thing is, it must be something you cannot possibly do.
Henry Moore
Image
There is a right physical size for every idea.
Henry Moore
Image
One mustn't let technique be the consciously important thing. It should be at the service of expressing the form.
Henry Moore
Image
Talking about one's work releases the energy and tension to do and make.
Henry Moore
Image
You must always be open to your luck. You cannot force it, but you can recognize it.
Henry Moore
Image
Painting and sculpture help other people to see what a wonderful world we live in.
Henry Moore
Image
The whole of nature is an endless demonstration of shape and form. It always surprises me when artists try to escape from this.
Henry Moore
Image
I have always liked drawing, when you draw you see things more intensely.
Henry Moore
Image
Art is to make our lives richer and fuller.
Henry Moore
Image
I have always been very interested in landscape... I find that all natural forms are a source of unending interest - tree trunks, the growth of branches from the trunk, each finding its own individual air-space.
Henry Moore
Image
It is a mistake for a sculptor or a painter to speak or write very often about his job. It releases tension needed for his work.
Henry Moore
Image
A piece of sculpture can have a hole through it and not be weakened if the hole is of a studied size, shape, and direction.
Henry Moore
Image
Between beauty of expression and power of expression there is a difference of function. The first aims at pleasing the senses, the second has a spiritual vitality which for me is more moving and goes deeper than the senses.
Henry Moore
Image
Art is the expression of imagination, not the reproduction of reality.
Henry Moore
Image
Art is a continuous activity with no separation between past and present.
Henry Moore
