Michelangelo
Patience is eternal genius
Michelangelo
I am still learning. (at age 87)
Michelangelo
Many believe - and I believe - that I have been designated for this work by God. In spite of my old age, I do not want to give it up I work out of love for God and I put all my hope in Him.
Michelangelo
Art lives on constraint and dies of freedom.
Michelangelo
Perchance that I might learn what pity is, That I might laugh at erring men no more.
Michelangelo
Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.
Michelangelo
