More quotes by Pablo Picasso
If everybody is looking for it, then nobody is finding it. If we were cultured, we would not be conscious of lacking culture. We would regard it as something natural and would not make so much fuss about it. And if we knew the real value of this word we would be cultured enough not to give it so much importance.
Pablo Picasso
The important thing is to create. Nothing else matters creation is all.
Pablo Picasso
For my part, I can't do anything else but what I am doing.
Pablo Picasso
Photography has arrived at the point where it is capable of liberating painting from all literature, from the anecdote, and even from the subject. In any case, a certain aspect of the subject now belongs to the domain of photography. So shouldn't painters profit from their newly acquired liberty, and make use of it to do other things?
Pablo Picasso
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
It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.
Pablo Picasso
You can go to the moon or walk under the sea, or anything else you like, but painting remains painting because it eludes such investigation. It remains there like a question. And it alone gives the answer.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Pablo Picasso
All Children are Artists
Pablo Picasso
The more technique you have, the less you have to worry about it. The more technique there is, the less there is.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is a jeu d'esprit.
Pablo Picasso
When you're really young, you're young for life.
Pablo Picasso
To know what you're going to draw, you have to begin drawing.
Pablo Picasso
For a long time I limited myself to one colour - as a form of discipline.
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
When I haven't any blue I use red.
Pablo Picasso
It's a poor artist who borrows--a good artist steals.
Pablo Picasso
I paint the way some people write an autobiography. The paintings, finished or not, are the pages from my diary.
Pablo Picasso
Each time I undertake to paint a picture I have a sensation of leaping into space. I never know whether I shall fall on my feet. It is only later that I begin to estimate more exactly the the effect of my work.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a leap into the dark.
