If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Everything exists in limited quantity - especially happiness.
Pablo Picasso
Image
What do you think an artist is? ...he is a political being, constantly aware of the heart breaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image. Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Age only matters when one is aging. Now that I have arrived at a great age, I might as well be twenty.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If I paint a wild horse, you might not see the horse... but surely you will see the wildness!
Pablo Picasso
Image
What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The secret of many of my deformations - which many people do not understand - is that there is an interaction, an intereffect between the lines in a painting: one line attracts the other and at the point of maximum attraction the lines curve in toward the attracting point and form is altered.

Image
Beauty? To me it is a word without sense because I do not know where its meaning comes from nor where it leads to.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Computers are stupid.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
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
Image
For me, there are two kinds of women - goddesses and doormats.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is not chaste. Those ill prepared should be allowed no contact with art. Art is dangerous. If it is chaste, it is not art.

The earth doesn't have a housekeeper to do the dusting.

Image
You don't make art, you find it
Pablo Picasso
Image
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Abstract art is only painting. And what's so dramatic about that? There is no abstract art. One must always begin with something. Afterwards one can remove all semblance of reality there is no longer any danger as the idea of the object has left an indelible imprint.
Pablo Picasso
Image
For a long time I limited myself to one colour - as a form of discipline.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The painter goes through states of fullness and evaluation. That is the whole secret of art.
