More quotes by Michelangelo
I serve for the love of God and in Him have all my hope.
Michelangelo
Patience is eternal genius
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
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
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
I have never felt salvation in nature. I love cities above all.
Michelangelo
The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has.
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
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
Art lives on constraint and dies of freedom.
Michelangelo
Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.
Michelangelo
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
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
Critique by creating.
Michelangelo
I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
Michelangelo
There is an angel imprisoned in it and I must set it free.
Michelangelo
Carving is easy, you just go down to the skin and stop.
Michelangelo
The greatest artist has no conception which a single block of white marble does not potentially contain within its mass, but only a hand obedient to the mind can penetrate to this image.
Michelangelo
There is no greater harm than that of time wasted.
Michelangelo
Draw, Antonio draw, Antonio draw and don’t waste time.
Michelangelo
