Character is the architect of the being.
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
When you are doing a piece you are with it. You don't want to wait until next week, when experience will have given you something else.

Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
The freer that women become, the freer men will be. Because when you enslave someone, you are enslaved.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
A white lace curtain on the window was for me as important as a great work of art. This gossamer quality, the reflection, the form, the movement. I learned more about art from that than I did in school.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
I still want to do my work. I still want to do my livingness. And I have lived. I have been fulfilled. I recognized what I had, and I never sold it short. And I ain't through yet.
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
My mother was very sympathetic. She was the one who really gave me the courage to take my freedom.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
What we start with is a conviction to fulfill our being. Horses, trees fulfill themselves. Why shouldn't people.
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
I have made my world and it is a much better world than I ever saw outside.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
It is as hard to take success as it is failure.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
The outside wold pressures you into a mold, but if you don't accept that - you gamble with life. Call it gambling.
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
I've taught, and the first thing I did when I taught art, was not to teach art.
