More quotes by Michelangelo
Love is a beautiful image Imagined or seen within the heart, The friend of virtue and gentility.
Michelangelo
Good painting is the kind that looks like sculpture.
Michelangelo
Art is the gift of God, and must be used unto His glory. That in art is highest which aims at this.
Michelangelo
If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all.
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
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
Poets and painters have the power to dare, I mean to dare to do whatever they may approve of.
Michelangelo
To know each other is the best way to understand each other. To understand each other is the only way to love each other.
Michelangelo
Patience is eternal genius
Michelangelo
I cannot live under pressures from patrons, let alone paint.
Michelangelo
Draw, Antonio draw, Antonio draw and don’t waste time.
Michelangelo
I live and love in God's peculiar light.
Michelangelo
A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.
Michelangelo
A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.
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
If I am more alive because love burns and chars me, as a fire, given wood or wind, feels new elation, it's that he who lays me low is my salvation, and invigorates the more, the more he scars me.
Michelangelo
Serene I fold my hands and wait.
Michelangelo
Critique by creating.
Michelangelo
In my opinion painting should be considered excellent in proportion as it approaches the effect of relief, while relief should be considered bad in proportion as it approaches the effect of painting.
Michelangelo
The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has.
Michelangelo
