More quotes by Pablo Picasso
Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.
Pablo Picasso
I have never made radically different experiments. Whenever I wanted to say something, I said it the way I believed I should.
Pablo Picasso
The path to youth takes a lifetime.
Pablo Picasso
It's a poor artist who borrows--a good artist steals.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Pablo Picasso
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
Pablo Picasso
I am always making that what I am not capable, in an attempt to learn how to doing it.
Pablo Picasso
Museums are just a lot of lies, and the people who make art their business are mostly imposters. We have infected the pictures in museums with all our stupidities, all our mistakes, all our poverty of spirit. We have turned them into petty and ridiculous things.
Pablo Picasso
Reality is to be found in lightness and darkness.
Pablo Picasso
If I knew what the meaning of art was, I wouldn't tell you.
Pablo Picasso
We didn't want to sign the painting itself, that would have interfered with the composition. And even later, for that reason or for another, I sometimes marked my canvases on the back. If you don't see my signature and the date, madam, it's because the frame is hiding it.
Pablo Picasso
I understand my own pictures best six months after I have done them.
Pablo Picasso
To me there is no past or future in art. If a work of art does not live in the present, it must not be considered at all.
Pablo Picasso
It is the object which aroused the artist, stimulated his ideas and set of his emotions. These ideas and emotions will be imprisoned in his work for good.
Pablo Picasso
Rhythm is a perception of time... when drawing, the tiredness of the hand is a rhythm.
Pablo Picasso
Why do you try to understand art? Do you try to understand the song of a bird?
Pablo Picasso
Don't waste your youth growing up.
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
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
Art is lies that tell the truth.
Pablo Picasso
