Image
Mozart never composed anything, ever! He copied what was written on his soul.
Marc Chagall
Image
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
Image
Only love interests me, and I am only in contact with things that revolve around love.
Marc Chagall
Image
In the arts, as in life, everything is possible provided it is based on love.
Marc Chagall
Image
My mother's love for me was so great I have worked hard to justify it.
Marc Chagall
Image
I adore the theater and I am a painter. I think the two are made for a marriage of love. I will give all my soul to prove this once more.
Marc Chagall
Image
My works are dear to me, each in its own way, I shall have to answer for them on the Day off Judgement. God alone knows whether I shall ever see them again. Quite apart from the money which I was going to receive for their sale there (exhibition in Gallery Der Sturm, Berlin June-July, 1914) and it is no small sum.

What counts is art. painting, a kind of painting that is quite different from what everyone makes it out to be. But what kind? Will God or someone else give me the strength to breathe the breath of prayer and mourning into my paintings, the breath of prayer for redemption and resurrection?

I am working in Paris . I cannot for a single day get the thought out of my head that there probably exists something essential, some immutable reality, and now that I have lost everything else (thank God, it gets lost all on its own) I am trying to preserve this and, what is more, not to be content. In a word: I am working.

Image
Everything in art must spring from the movement of our whole life-stream, of our whole being - including the unconscious.
Marc Chagall
Image
Art seems to me to be above all a state of soul.

Image
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.

On cannot be precise, and still be true.

One must always be careful not to let one's work be covered with moss.
Marc Chagall
Image
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.

Mine alone is the country of my soul.

Color is all. When color is right, form is right. Color is everything, color is vibration like music everything is vibration.

Color is vibration like music everything is vibration.

Despite all the troubles of our world, in my heart I have never given up on the love in which I was brought up or on man's hope in love. In life, just as on the artist's palette, there is but one single colour that gives meaning to life and art–the colour of love

Work isn't to make money you work to justify life.
