More quotes by Pablo Picasso

Image
The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.
Pablo Picasso
Image
People want to find a 'meaning' in everything and everyone. That's the disease of our age...
Pablo Picasso
Image
I who have been involved with all styles of painting can assure you that the only things that fluctuate are the waves of fashion which carry the snobs and speculators the number of true connoisseurs remains more or less the same.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I do things I don't know how to do in order to learn how to do them.
Pablo Picasso
Image
For me painting is a dramatic action in the course of which reality finds itself split apart
Pablo Picasso
Image
If all the ways I have been along were marked on a map and joined up with a line, it might represent a minotaur.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I understand my own pictures best six months after I have done them.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I have never made radically different experiments. Whenever I wanted to say something, I said it the way I believed I should.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I hate that aesthetic game of the eye and the mind, played by these connoisseurs, these mandarins who appreciate beauty. What is beauty, anyway? There's no such thing. I never appreciate, any more than I like. I love it or I hate.
Pablo Picasso
Image
There are only two types of women - goddesses and doormats.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, or the painter?
Pablo Picasso
Image
In every photographer there was a painter, a true artist, awaiting expression.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I want to get to the stage where nobody can tell how a picture of mine is done. What's the point of that? Simply that I want nothing but emotion given off by it.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
We have a lot of reasons but only one real one.
Pablo Picasso
Image
While I am working I am not conscious of what I am putting on the canvas.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If you are a genius and unsuccessful, everybody treats you as if you were a genius, but when you come to be successful, when you commence to earn money, when you are really successful, then your family and everybody no longer treats you like a genius, they treat you like a man who has become successful.

If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
