More quotes by Michelangelo
I feast on wine and bread, and feasts they are.
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
I sometimes set myself thinking and imagining that I find amongst men but one single art or science, and that is drawing or painting, all others being members proceeding therefrom.
Michelangelo
The goods of Fortune, even such as they really are, still need taste to enjoy them. It is the enjoying no the possessing, that makes us happy.
Michelangelo
Draw, Antonio draw, Antonio draw and don’t waste time.
Michelangelo
Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.
Michelangelo
Critique by creating.
Michelangelo
Do you know that women who are chaste remain much fresher than those who are not?
Michelangelo
I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
Michelangelo
The idea is there locked inside. All you have to do is remove the excess stone.
Michelangelo
Love is a beautiful image Imagined or seen within the heart, The friend of virtue and gentility.
Michelangelo
Is it any wonder, since, when near the fire, I was melted and burned, if now that it's extinguished outside me, it besets and consumes me inside, and bit by bit reduces me to ashes?
Michelangelo
Whenever a great painter... does a work which appears to be false and lying, that falsity is very true.
Michelangelo
Many believe - and I believe - that I have been designated for this work by God. In spite of my old age, I do not want to give it up I work out of love for God and I put all my hope in Him.
Michelangelo
An artist does his most difficult work when he steps back from the blank canvas and thinks about what he is going to create.
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
Serene I fold my hands and wait.
Michelangelo
A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.
Michelangelo
No one has mastery, Before he is at the end, Of his art and his life.
Michelangelo
There is no greater harm than that of time wasted.
Michelangelo
