Michelangelo
Perchance that I might learn what pity is, That I might laugh at erring men no more.
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
A good sculpture can be rolled downhill without breaking.
Michelangelo
