Art is a lie that makes us realise truth ... that is given us to understand.
Pablo Picasso
Image
People want Art. And they are given it. But the less Art there is in painting the more painting there is.
Pablo Picasso
Image
What other movement determines the S line? Its aesthetic efficacity has long been noted by artists.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The urge to destroy is also a creative urge.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The painter goes through states of fullness and evaluation. That is the whole secret of art.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
The Parthenon is really only a farmyard over which someone put a roof colonades and sculptures were added because there were people in Athens who happened to be working and wanted to express themselves.

When you're really young, you're young for life.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When it comes right down to it, all you have is your self. Your Self is a sun with a thousand rays.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If I had known there was such a thing as Islamic Calligraphy, I would never have started to paint. I have strived to reach the highest levels of artistic mastery, but I found that Islamic Calligraphy was there ages before I was.
Pablo Picasso
Image
You mustn't expect me to repeat myself. My past doesn't interest me. I would rather copy others than copy myself. In that way I should at least be giving them something new. I love discovering things.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When I haven't any blue I use red.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The quality of a painter depends on the amount of past he carries with him.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
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
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
Image
Why do you try to understand art? Do you try to understand the song of a bird?
Pablo Picasso
Image
I paint the way some people write an autobiography. The paintings, finished or not, are the pages from my diary.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When there's dust missing here or there, it's because someone has touched my things. I see immediately someone has been there. And it's because I live constantly with dust, in dust, that I prefer to wear gray suits, the only color on which it leaves no trace.

For me, there are two kinds of women - goddesses and doormats.
