More quotes by Michelangelo
Do you know that women who are chaste remain much fresher than those who are not?
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
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
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
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 sculpture can be rolled downhill without breaking.
Michelangelo
Do not fret, for God did not create us to abandon us.
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
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
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
The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection.
Michelangelo
Beauty depends on purpose. It is in the elements best suited to their purpose or aim that beauty shines forth most strongly.
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
Serene I fold my hands and wait.
Michelangelo
A good artist ought never to allow impatience to overcome his sense of the main end of art - perfection
Michelangelo
The promises of this world are, for the most part, vain phantoms and to confide in one's self, and become something of worth and value is the best and safest course.
Michelangelo
Even if you are divine, you don't disdain male consorts.
Michelangelo
Sculpture is made by taking away, while painting is made by adding.
Michelangelo
