More quotes by Michelangelo
Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.
Michelangelo
Patience is eternal genius
Michelangelo
The mind, the soul, becomes ennobled by the endeavour to create something perfect, for God is perfection, and whoever strives after perfection is striving for something devine.
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
No thought is born in me that does not bear the image of death.
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
Sculpture is made by taking away, while painting is made by adding.
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
Critique by creating.
Michelangelo
The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material.
Michelangelo
I feast on wine and bread, and feasts they are.
Michelangelo
Lord free me of myself, so I can please you!
Michelangelo
Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.
Michelangelo
If it be true that any beautiful thing raises the pure and just desire of man from earth to God, the eternal fount of all, such I believe my love.
Michelangelo
A good sculpture can be rolled downhill without breaking.
Michelangelo
It is not sufficient merely to be a great master in painting and very wise, but I think that it is necessary for the painter to be very moral in his mode of life, or even, if such were possible, a saint, so that the Holy Spirit may inspire his intellect.
Michelangelo
Even if you are divine, you don't disdain male consorts.
Michelangelo
I created a vision of David in my mind and simply carved away everything that was not David.
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
I live and love in God's peculiar light.
Michelangelo
