When you start with a portrait and try to find pure form by abstracting more and more, you must end up with an egg.

More quotes by Pablo Picasso
When the individuality of the artist begins to express itself, what the artist gains in the way of liberty he loses in the way of order.
Pablo Picasso
Youth has no age.
Pablo Picasso
The different styles I have been using in my art must not be seen as an evolution, or as steps towards an unknown ideal of painting. Everything I have ever made was made for the present and with the hope that it would always remain in the present.
Pablo Picasso
Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing?
Pablo Picasso
People want Art. And they are given it. But the less Art there is in painting the more painting there is.
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
When you're really young, you're young for life.
Pablo Picasso
An artist must forget painting when he paints. That's the only way he will do original work.
Pablo Picasso
Disciples be damned. It's not interesting. It's only the masters that matter. Those who create.
Pablo Picasso
Forcing yourself to use restricted means is the sort of restraint that liberates invention. It obliges you to make a kind of progress that you can't even imagine in advance.
Pablo Picasso
If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
For me painting is a dramatic action in the course of which reality finds itself split apart
Pablo Picasso
We now know that Art is not the truth... but rather a way of approaching the truth.
Pablo Picasso
Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is a jeu d'esprit.
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
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
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
Art is lies that tell the truth.
Pablo Picasso
Sculpture is the art of the intelligence.
Pablo Picasso
