Quote

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.

More quotes by 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
Changes in societal structure and in art would possess more credibility if they had their origins in the soul and spirit. If people read the words of the prophets with closer attention, they would find the keys to life.
Marc Chagall
Image
I've always painted pictures in which human love floods my colors.
Marc Chagall
Image
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?
Marc Chagall
Image
Art seems to me to be above all a state of soul.
Marc Chagall
Image
On cannot be precise, and still be true.
Marc Chagall
Image
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
Image
Mine alone is the country of my soul.
Marc Chagall
Image
One must always be careful not to let one's work be covered with moss.
Marc Chagall
Image
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
Image
Art is foremost a state of mind, and only secondarily a problem of form.
Marc Chagall
Image
In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.
Marc Chagall
Image
Everything in art must spring from the movement of our whole life-stream, of our whole being - including the unconscious.
Marc Chagall
Image
The fingers must be educated, the thumb is born knowing.
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.
Marc Chagall
Image
Color is vibration like music everything is vibration.
Marc Chagall
Image
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
Marc Chagall
Image
Only love interests me, and I am only in contact with things that revolve around love.
Marc Chagall
Image
In my youth, poverty enriched me, but now I can afford wealth.

Color is everything. When color is right, form is right.
