More quotes by Michelangelo
So take care of your life and take notice and be observant, for the number of widows is always far greater than the number of widowers.
Michelangelo
Carving is easy, you just go down to the skin and stop.
Michelangelo
After four tortured years, more than 400 over life-sized figures, I felt as old and as weary as Jeremiah. I was only 37, yet friends did not recognize the old man I had become.
Michelangelo
Heaven-born, the soul a heavenward course must hold beyond the world she soars the wise man, I affirm, can find no rest in that which perishes, nor will he lend his heart to ought that doth time depend
Michelangelo
I feast on wine and bread, and feasts they are.
Michelangelo
I dare affirm that any artist... who has nothing singular, eccentric, or at least reputed to be so, in his person, will never become a superior talent.
Michelangelo
To know each other is the best way to understand each other. To understand each other is the only way to love each other.
Michelangelo
If I am more alive because love burns and chars me, as a fire, given wood or wind, feels new elation, it's that he who lays me low is my salvation, and invigorates the more, the more he scars me.
Michelangelo
The promises of this world are, for the most part, vain phantoms and to confide in one's self, and become something of worth and value is the best and safest course.
Michelangelo
There is an angel imprisoned in it and I must set it free.
Michelangelo
The greatest artist has no conception which a single block of white marble does not potentially contain within its mass, but only a hand obedient to the mind can penetrate to this image.
Michelangelo
A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.
Michelangelo
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
Michelangelo
Critique by creating.
Michelangelo
Love is a beautiful image Imagined or seen within the heart, The friend of virtue and gentility.
Michelangelo
A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.
Michelangelo
Painting and sculpture, labour and good faith, have been my ruin and I continually go from bad to worse. Better it would have been for me if I had set myself to making matches in my youth. I should not be in such distress of mind.
Michelangelo
Art is the gift of God, and must be used unto His glory. That in art is highest which aims at this.
Michelangelo
Serene I fold my hands and wait.
Michelangelo
True art is made noble and religious by the mind producing it.
Michelangelo
