More quotes by Marc Chagall
To call everything that appears illogical, fantasy, fairy tale, or chimera would be practically to admit not understanding nature.
Marc Chagall
All colors are the friends of their neighbors and the lovers of their opposites.
Marc Chagall
In the arts, as in life, everything is possible provided it is based on love.
Marc Chagall
If a symbol should be discovered in a painting of mine, it was not my intention. It is a result I did not seek. It is something that may be found afterwards, and which can be interpreted according to taste.
Marc Chagall
When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.
Marc Chagall
Can my words distill for you a little sweetness, tender and caressing?
Marc Chagall
If I create with my heart almost all my intentions remain. If it is with the head - almost nothing. An artist must not fear to be himself, to express only himself. If he is absolutely and entirely sincere, what he says and does will be acceptable to others.
Marc Chagall
Color is vibration like music everything is vibration.
Marc Chagall
Art is foremost a state of mind, and only secondarily a problem of form.
Marc Chagall
Mozart never composed anything, ever! He copied what was written on his soul.
Marc Chagall
Everything in art must spring from the movement of our whole life-stream, of our whole being - including the unconscious.
Marc Chagall
If all life moves inevitably towards its end, then we must, during our own, colour it with our colours of love and hope.
Marc Chagall
I've always painted pictures in which human love floods my colors.
Marc Chagall
Work isn't to make money you work to justify life.
Marc Chagall
The habit of ignoring Nature is deeply implanted in our times. This attitude reminds me of people who never look you in the eye I find them disturbing and always have to look away.
Marc Chagall
In my youth, poverty enriched me, but now I can afford wealth.
Marc Chagall
If I weren't a Jew then I wouldn't be an artist, or at least not the one I am now.
Marc Chagall
Only love interests me, and I am only in contact with things that revolve around love.
Marc Chagall
The most authentic Russian Impressionism leaves one perplexed if one compares it with Monet and Pissarro. Here, in the Louvre, before the canvases of Manet, Millet and others, I understood why my alliance with Russia and Russian art did not take root.
Marc Chagall
Art seems to me to be above all a state of soul.
Marc Chagall
