Michelangelo
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I cannot live under pressures from patrons, let alone paint.
Michelangelo
Image
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
Image
Art is the gift of God, and must be used unto His glory. That in art is highest which aims at this.
Michelangelo

Carving is easy, you just go down to the skin and stop.
