More quotes by Pablo Picasso
The revolutionary artist does not only focus on the negative aspects of capitalist lives, but also creates visions of a revolutionary future.
Pablo Picasso
Art is an instrument in the war against the enemy.
Pablo Picasso
The painter goes through states of fullness and evaluation. That is the whole secret of art.
Pablo Picasso
To know what you’re going to draw, you have to begin drawing... When I find myself facing a blank page, that’s always going through my head. What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso
Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
Pablo Picasso
When there's dust missing here or there, it's because someone has touched my things. I see immediately someone has been there. And it's because I live constantly with dust, in dust, that I prefer to wear gray suits, the only color on which it leaves no trace.
Pablo Picasso
There's no such thing as a bad Picasso, but some are less good than others.
Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso
Through art we express our conception of what nature is not.
Pablo Picasso
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
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
Anything new, anything worth doing, can't be recognized.
Pablo Picasso
They ought to put out the eyes of painters as they do goldfinches in order that they can sing better.
Pablo Picasso
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
Pablo Picasso
They are not men, they are not women, they are Americans.
Pablo Picasso
For those who know how to read, I have painted my autobiography
Pablo Picasso
Paradise is to love many things with a passion.
Pablo Picasso
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
I would like to manage to prevent people from ever seeing how a picture of mine has been done. What can it possibly matter? What I want is that the only thing emanating from my pictures should be emotion.
Pablo Picasso
