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.

More quotes by 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?

A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
Pablo Picasso
Inspiration exists, but you have to find it working.
Pablo Picasso
Good taste is the enemy of creativity.
Pablo Picasso
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist while still achieving milestones and outcomes as required by certain funders and policy-makers.
Pablo Picasso
I'm always doing things I can't do. That's how I get to do them.
Pablo Picasso
If I don't have red, I use blue.

Everything exists in limited quantity - especially happiness.
Pablo Picasso
Art is an instrument in the war against the enemy.
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
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
The earth doesn't have a housekeeper to do the dusting. And the dust that falls on it every day remains there. Everything that's come down to us from the past has been conserved by dust.
Pablo Picasso
When it comes right down to it, all you have is your self. Your Self is a sun with a thousand rays.
Pablo Picasso
Go and do the things you can't. That is how you get to do them.
Pablo Picasso
Formerly pictures used to move towards completion in progressive stages. Each day would bring something new. A picture was a sum of additions. With me, picture is a sum of destructions. I do a picture, then I destroy it. But in the long run nothing is lost the red that I took away from one place turns up somewhere else.
Pablo Picasso
