Quote

The Parthenon is really only a farmyard over which someone put a roof colonades and sculptures were added because there were people in Athens who happened to be working and wanted to express themselves.

Image
I do not evolve, I am.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The urge to destroy is also a creative urge.
Pablo Picasso
Image
An artist must be very careful not to look for models. As soon as one artist takes another as model, he is lost. There is no other point of departure than reality.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I'd like to live like a poor man with a lot of money.
Pablo Picasso
Image
You can go to the moon or walk under the sea, or anything else you like, but painting remains painting because it eludes such investigation. It remains there like a question. And it alone gives the answer.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To know what you're going to draw, you have to begin drawing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.
Pablo Picasso
Image
In art intentions are not sufficient and, as we say in Spanish, love must be proved by deeds and not by reasons. What one does is what counts and not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We have a lot of reasons but only one real one.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Computers are useless - all they can give you are answers.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Style is often something which locks the painter into the same vision, the same technique, the same formula during years and years, sometimes during one's whole lifetime.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We artists are indestructible even in a prison, or in a concentration camp, I would be almighty in my own world of art, even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Computers are stupid.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I want to create a cat like the real cats I see crossing the streets, not like those you see in houses. They have nothing in common. The cat of the streets has bristling fur. It runs like a fiend, and if it looks at you, you think it is going to jump in your face.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is an instrument in the war against the enemy.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I have never made radically different experiments. Whenever I wanted to say something, I said it the way I believed I should.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I simply painted images of what was before my eyes it is for others to find hidden meaning in them.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
Love must be proven by facts and not by reasons.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Anything new, anything worth doing, can't be recognized.
