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.

More quotes by Pablo Picasso
When I paint I feel that all the artists of the past are behind me.
Pablo Picasso
When we did Cubist paintings, our intention was not to produce Cubist paintings but to express what was within us. No one laid down a course of action for us, and our friends the poets followed our endeavour attentively but they never dictated it to us.
Pablo Picasso
I imitate everyone except myself.
Pablo Picasso
Rhythm is a perception of time... when drawing, the tiredness of the hand is a rhythm.
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
I don't say everything, but I paint everything.
Pablo Picasso
I hate that aesthetic game of the eye and the mind, played by these connoisseurs, these mandarins who appreciate beauty. What is beauty, anyway? There's no such thing. I never appreciate, any more than I like. I love it or I hate.
Pablo Picasso
In every photographer there was a painter, a true artist, awaiting expression.
Pablo Picasso
Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.
Pablo Picasso
I am exhausted if I don't work.
Pablo Picasso
What one does is what counts. Not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Drink to me. Drink to my health. You know I can't drink any more.
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
Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing?
Pablo Picasso
Formerly pictures used to move towards completion in progressive stages. Each day would bring something new. A picture was a sum of additions. With me, picture is a sum of destructions. I do a picture, then I destroy it. But in the long run nothing is lost the red that I took away from one place turns up somewhere else.
Pablo Picasso
Enough of Art. It's Art that kills us. People no longer want to do painting: they make art.
Pablo Picasso
I have discovered photography. Now I can kill myself. I have nothing else to learn.
Pablo Picasso
If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
The chief enemy of creativity is 'good' sense.
Pablo Picasso
One must act in painting as in life, directly.
Pablo Picasso
