We don't grow older, we grow riper.
Pablo Picasso
Image
For a long time I limited myself to one colour - as a form of discipline.
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
Nature does many things the way I do, but she hides them!
Pablo Picasso
Image
If you are a genius and unsuccessful, everybody treats you as if you were a genius, but when you come to be successful, when you commence to earn money, when you are really successful, then your family and everybody no longer treats you like a genius, they treat you like a man who has become successful.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a finger up the bourgeoisie ass.
Pablo Picasso
Image
A good picture, any picture, has to be bristling with razor blades.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Rhythm is a perception of time... when drawing, the tiredness of the hand is a rhythm.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Drawing is a kind of hypnotism: one looks in such a way at the model, that he comes and takes a seat on the paper.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
Paradise is to love many things with a passion.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
The best calculation is the absence of calculation. Once you have attained a certain level of recognition, others generally figure that when you do something, it's for an intelligent reason. So it's really foolish to plot out your movements too carefully in advance. You're better off acting capriciously.
Pablo Picasso
Image
There is only one way to see things, until someone shows us how to look at them with different eyes
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
Titian, Rembrandt and Goya were the great painters. I am only a public clown.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If I were to sign it now, I'd be committing forgery. I'd be putting my 1943 signature on a canvas painted in 1922.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Computers are useless - all they can give you are answers.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Painting isn't an aesthetic operation it's a form of magic designed as mediator between this strange hostile world and us.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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.
