The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.

More quotes by Pablo Picasso
What I achieve the first day can be perfectly valid, but it is not satisfying. If I can go that far spontaneously, then I must shed that result as an old skin and inquire further into the unknown, or at least the not-yet-known-to-myself.
Pablo Picasso
Don't waste your youth growing up.
Pablo Picasso
I never calculate. That is why those who do, calculate so much less accurately than I.
Pablo Picasso
Rhythm is a perception of time... when drawing, the tiredness of the hand is a rhythm.
Pablo Picasso
The painter goes through states of fullness and evaluation. That is the whole secret of art.
Pablo Picasso
We don't grow older, we grow riper.
Pablo Picasso
Every now and then one paints a picture that seems to have opened a door and serves as a stepping stone to other things.
Pablo Picasso
The revolutionary artist does not only focus on the negative aspects of capitalist lives, but also creates visions of a revolutionary future.
Pablo Picasso
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
Pablo Picasso
Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There is no other route to success.
Pablo Picasso
Art isn't done to decorate apartments, but to wage war against the enemy.
Pablo Picasso
The artist spends the first part of his life with the dead, the second with the living, and the third with himself.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is a jeu d'esprit.
Pablo Picasso
Have you noticed that bones are always modeled and not carved, that you always have the impression they come from a mold, that they were first modeled in clay? Any bone you look at, you always find fingerprints on it.
Pablo Picasso
The best calculation is the absence of calculation. Once you have attained a certain level of recognition, others generally figure that when you do something, it's for an intelligent reason. So it's really foolish to plot out your movements too carefully in advance. You're better off acting capriciously.
Pablo Picasso
Art is never chaste. It ought to be forbidden to ignorant innocents, never allowed into contact with those not sufficiently prepared. Yes, art is dangerous. Where it is chaste, it is not art.
Pablo Picasso
Formerly pictures used to move towards completion in progressive stages. Each day would bring something new. A picture was a sum of additions. With me, picture is a sum of destructions. I do a picture, then I destroy it. But in the long run nothing is lost the red that I took away from one place turns up somewhere else.
Pablo Picasso
One cannot be a sorcerer all the time. How could one live?
Pablo Picasso
I am a communist and my painting is a communist painting. But if I were a shoemaker, Royalist or Communist or anything else, I would not necessarily hammer my shoes in any special way to show my politics.
Pablo Picasso
When I was a kid I drew like Michelangelo. It took me years to learn to draw like a kid.
Pablo Picasso
