More quotes by Pablo Picasso
My friends back in Barcelona called me by that name (Picasso). It was stranger, more resonant, than Ruiz. And those are probably the reasons I adopted it. Do you know what appealed to me about that name? Well, it was undoubtedly the double s, which is fairly unusual in Spain.
Pablo Picasso
I try to paint what I have found and not what I look for. In art, intentions are of little importance.
Pablo Picasso
They'll sell you thousands of greens. Veronese green and emerald green and cadmium green and any sort of green you like but that particular green, never.
Pablo Picasso
It's a poor artist who borrows--a good artist steals.
Pablo Picasso
It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.
Pablo Picasso
The only thing that's important is the legend created by the picture, and not whether it continues to exist itself.
Pablo Picasso
Age only matters when one is aging. Now that I have arrived at a great age, I might as well be twenty.
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
When I enter the studio, I leave my body at the door the way the Moslems leave their shoes when they enter the mosque, and I only allow my spirit to go in there and paint.
Pablo Picasso
Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing?
Pablo Picasso
Drawing is a kind of hypnotism: one looks in such a way at the model, that he comes and takes a seat on the paper.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a finger up the bourgeoisie ass.
Pablo Picasso
Why assume that to look is to see?
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
Computers are useless - all they can give you are answers.
Pablo Picasso
Now there is fame! Of all - hunger, misery, the incomprehension by the public - fame is by far the worst. It is the castigation of God by the artist. It is sad. It is true.
Pablo Picasso
Sculpture is the art of the intelligence.
Pablo Picasso
Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs.
Pablo Picasso
Nature does many things the way I do, but she hides them!
Pablo Picasso
They ought to put out the eyes of painters as they do goldfinches in order that they can sing better.
Pablo Picasso
