More quotes by 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
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
It is well with me only when I have a chisel in my hand.
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 live and love in God's peculiar light.
Michelangelo
True art is made noble and religious by the mind producing it.
Michelangelo
If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all.
Michelangelo
A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.
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
I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
Michelangelo
Perchance that I might learn what pity is, That I might laugh at erring men no more.
Michelangelo
The great tragedy of life is not that people set their sights too high and fail to achieve their goals but that they set their sights too low and do.
Michelangelo
Poets and painters have the power to dare, I mean to dare to do whatever they may approve of.
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
The greatest risk to man is not that he aims to high and misses, but that he aims to low and hits.
Michelangelo
Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.
Michelangelo
Painters are not in any way unsociable through pride, but either because they find few pursuits equal to painting, or in order not to corrupt themselves with the useless conversation of idle people, and debase the intellect from the lofty imaginations in which they are always absorbed.
Michelangelo
Your gifts lie in the place where your values, passions and strengths meet. Discovering that place is the first step toward sculpting your masterpiece, Your Life.
Michelangelo
I live in sin, to kill myself I live no longer my life my own, but sin's my good is given to me by heaven, my evil by myself, by my free will, of which I am deprived.
Michelangelo
