When I was a kid I drew like Michelangelo. It took me years to learn to draw like a kid.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?
Pablo Picasso
Image
For me, there are two kinds of women - goddesses and doormats.

Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.

The secret of many of my deformations - which many people do not understand - is that there is an interaction, an intereffect between the lines in a painting: one line attracts the other and at the point of maximum attraction the lines curve in toward the attracting point and form is altered.
Pablo Picasso

The important thing is to create. Nothing else matters creation is all.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is the best possible introduction to the culture of the world. I love it for the buried hopes, the garnered memories, the tender feelings it can summon at a touch. It washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

One cannot be a sorcerer all the time. How could one live?
Pablo Picasso
Image
Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.
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
Everybody has the same energy potential. The average person wastes his in a dozen little ways. I bring mine to bear on one thing only: my paintings, and everything else is sacrificed to it...myself included.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Cubism is not a reality you can take in your hand. It's more like a perfume, in front of you, behind you, to the sides, the scent is everywhere but you don’t quite know where it comes from.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I'm always doing things I can't do. That's how I get to do them.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If you know exactly what you're going to do, what's the good in doing it?
Pablo Picasso
Image
No doubt, it is useful for an artist to know all the forms of art which have preceded or which accompany his. That is a sign of strength if it is a question of looking for a stimulus or recognizing mistakes he must avoid.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Painting isn't an aesthetic operation it's a form of magic designed as mediator between this strange hostile world and us.
