More quotes by Michelangelo
And who is so barbarous as not to understand that the foot of a man is nobler than his shoe, and his skin nobler than that of the sheep with which he is clothed.
Michelangelo
I feast on wine and bread, and feasts they are.
Michelangelo
If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all.
Michelangelo
There is an angel imprisoned in it and I must set it free.
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
If there is some good in me, it is because I was born in the subtle atmosphere of your country of Arezzo. Along with the milk of my nurse I received the knack of handling chisel and hammer, with which I make my figures.
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
Lord free me of myself, so I can please you!
Michelangelo
Art is the gift of God, and must be used unto His glory. That in art is highest which aims at this.
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
A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.
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
Draw, Antonio draw, Antonio draw and don’t waste time.
Michelangelo
Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it.
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
A good artist ought never to allow impatience to overcome his sense of the main end of art - perfection
Michelangelo
Gazing on beautiful things acts on my soul.
Michelangelo
I created a vision of David in my mind and simply carved away everything that was not David.
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
True art is made noble and religious by the mind producing it.
Michelangelo
