More quotes by Michelangelo
No thought is born in me that does not bear the image of death.
Michelangelo
Your greatness is measured by your horizons.
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
The greatest risk to man is not that he aims to high and misses, but that he aims to low and hits.
Michelangelo
Art lives on constraint and dies of freedom.
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
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
I am still learning. (at age 87)
Michelangelo
I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
Michelangelo
The power of one fair face makes my love sublime, for it has weaned my heart from low desires.
Michelangelo
No one has mastery, Before he is at the end, Of his art and his life.
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
The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.
Michelangelo
There is no greater harm than that of time wasted.
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
Draw, Antonio draw, Antonio draw and don’t waste time.
Michelangelo
Serene I fold my hands and wait.
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
Beauty depends on purpose. It is in the elements best suited to their purpose or aim that beauty shines forth most strongly.
Michelangelo
Even if you are divine, you don't disdain male consorts.
Michelangelo
