More quotes by 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
I paint the way some people write an autobiography. The paintings, finished or not, are the pages from my diary.
Pablo Picasso
If only we could pull out our brain and use only our eyes.
Pablo Picasso
Lord, protect me from what I want!
Pablo Picasso
When you see what you express through photography, you realize all the things that can no longer be the objectives of painting. Why should an artist persist in treating subjects that can be established so clearly with the lens of a camera?
Pablo Picasso
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
Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
Pablo Picasso
If I knew what the meaning of art was, I wouldn't tell you.
Pablo Picasso
I don't know in advance what I am going to put on canvas any more than I decide beforehand what colours I am going to use.
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
To make oneself hated is more difficult than to make oneself loved.
Pablo Picasso
Enough of Art. It's Art that kills us. People no longer want to do painting: they make art.
Pablo Picasso
For a long time I limited myself to one colour - as a form of discipline.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a leap into the dark.
Pablo Picasso
A painting is not thought out in advance. While it is being done, it changes as one’s thoughts change. And when it’s finished, it goes on changing, according to the state of mind of whoever is looking at it
Pablo Picasso
In art, practice always comes before theory.
Pablo Picasso
What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
Success is dangerous. One begins to copy oneself, and to copy oneself is more dangerous than to copy others. It leads to sterility.
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
It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.
Pablo Picasso
