The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The more technique you have, the less you have to worry about it. The more technique there is, the less there is.
Pablo Picasso

When I paint I feel that all the artists of the past are behind me.
Pablo Picasso
Image
In art, there is neither past nor future. The art that is not in the present will never be.
Pablo Picasso
Image
There are chemists who spend their whole lives trying to find out what's in a lump of sugar. I want to know one thing. What is color?
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
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

Art isn't done to decorate apartments, but to wage war against the enemy.
