No doubt, it is useful for an artist to know all the forms of art which have preceded or which accompany his. That is a sign of strength if it is a question of looking for a stimulus or recognizing mistakes he must avoid.

More quotes by Pablo Picasso
Art is an instrument in the war against the enemy.
Pablo Picasso
The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.
Pablo Picasso
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
Pablo Picasso
All art is subversive.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Pablo Picasso
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
Pablo Picasso
If you know exactly what you're going to do, what's the good in doing it?
Pablo Picasso
Photography has arrived at the point where it is capable of liberating painting from all literature, from the anecdote, and even from the subject. In any case, a certain aspect of the subject now belongs to the domain of photography. So shouldn't painters profit from their newly acquired liberty, and make use of it to do other things?
Pablo Picasso
Never copy yourself, always copy someone else.
Pablo Picasso
There ought to be an absolute dictatorship... a dictatorship of painters... a dictatorship of one painter... to suppress all those who have betrayed us.
Pablo Picasso
Everything exists in limited quantity - especially happiness.
Pablo Picasso
When you are young and without success, you have only a few friends. Then, later on, when you are rich and famous, you still have a few... if you are lucky.
Pablo Picasso
You mustn't expect me to repeat myself. My past doesn't interest me. I would rather copy others than copy myself. In that way I should at least be giving them something new. I love discovering things.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Pablo Picasso
People don't realize what they have when they own a picture by me. Each picture is a phial with my blood. That is what has gone into it.
Pablo Picasso
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
Pablo Picasso
One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite - that particular peach is but a detail.
Pablo Picasso
Disciples be damned. It's not interesting. It's only the masters that matter. Those who create.
Pablo Picasso
When they say that I am too old to make a thing, I try to make it immediately.
Pablo Picasso
Drink to me. Drink to my health. You know I can't drink any more.
Pablo Picasso
