True strength is delicate.
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
If they blow it [the world] up, that's not my business. My business is to work.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
In my studio I'm as happy as a cow in her stall. That's the only place where everything is all right.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
You know when I decided to become professional - that means to expose yourself naked to the world with the other creative minds - I said, 'I'm going into areas I don't know. I might just fall right down to hell and kill myself.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson

Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I was given the gifts of the artist, and the trouble that goes with them: So I have that blessing, and there was never a time thatI questioned it or doubted it.... For forty years, I wanted to jump out of windows.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
