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
When you start with a portrait and try to find pure form by abstracting more and more, you must end up with an egg.
Pablo Picasso
Paintings are but research and experiment. I never do a painting as a work of art. All of them are researches. I search constantly and there is a logical sequence in all this research.
Pablo Picasso
Go and do the things you can't. That is how you get to do them.
Pablo Picasso
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
To know what you’re going to draw, you have to begin drawing... When I find myself facing a blank page, that’s always going through my head. What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
In art, practice always comes before theory.
Pablo Picasso
Different themes inevitably require different methods of expression. This does not imply either evolution or progress it is a matter of following the idea one wants to express and the way in which one wants to express it.
Pablo Picasso
Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.
Pablo Picasso
There are chemists who spend their whole lives trying to find out what's in a lump of sugar. I want to know one thing. What is color?
Pablo Picasso
Good taste is the enemy of creativity.
Pablo Picasso
Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.
Pablo Picasso
Races and religions may have changed, but the marketplace, the living quarters, pilgrimage sites, places of worship, have remained the same. Venus is replaced by the Virgin, but the same life goes on.
Pablo Picasso
The painter goes through states of fullness and evaluation. That is the whole secret of art.
Pablo Picasso
Never copy yourself, always copy someone else.
Pablo Picasso
As far as I am concerned, a painting speaks for itself. What is the use of giving explanations, when all is said and done? A painter has only one language.
Pablo Picasso
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
Pablo Picasso
People want to find a 'meaning' in everything and everyone. That's the disease of our age...
Pablo Picasso
Sculpture is the best comment that a painter can make on painting.
Pablo Picasso
There's nothing more difficult than a line.
Pablo Picasso
To make oneself hated is more difficult than to make oneself loved.
Pablo Picasso
