More quotes by Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
In the first grade, I already knew the pattern of my life. I didn't know the living of it, but I knew the line… From the first day in school until the day I graduated, everyone gave me one hundred plus in art. Well, where do you go in life? You go to the place where you got one hundred plus.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson

Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
If you have got a living force and you're not using it, nature kicks you back. The blood boils just like you put it in a pot.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I believe in my work and in the joy of it. You have to be with the work and the work has to be with you. It absorbs you totally and you absorb it totally.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I feel totally female. I didn't compete with men and I don't want to look like a man! I love being a lady and dressing up and masquerading and wearing all the fineries. I'm breaking down the idea that the artist has to look poor, with berets.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I never feel age... If you have creative work you don't have age or time.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
Some of us come on earth seeing – some of us come on earth seeing color.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
A woman may not hit a ball stronger than a man, but it is different. I prize that difference.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I make collages. I join the shattered world creating a new harmony.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I'm in tune with the right vibrations in the universe when I'm in the process of working.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
Everytime I put on clothes, I’m creating a picture.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I have made my world and it is a much better world than I ever saw outside.
