Image
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I consider a work of art as a product of calculations, calculations that are frequently unknown to the author himself.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To know what you're going to draw, you have to begin drawing.
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
People want Art. And they are given it. But the less Art there is in painting the more painting there is.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Everyone wants to understand art. Why don't we try to understand the song of a bird? Why do we love the night, the flowers, everything around us, without trying to understand them? But in the case of a painting, people think they have to understand.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We can see the light but we are still inside the tunnel, ... We have not been able to get to all the communities.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Everything exists in limited quantity - especially happiness.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We have a lot of reasons but only one real one.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
Pablo Picasso
Image
One cannot be a sorcerer all the time. How could one live?
Pablo Picasso
Image
In life you throw a ball. You hope it will reach a wall and bounce back so you can throw it again. You hope your friends will provide that wall.
Pablo Picasso
Image
What I achieve the first day can be perfectly valid, but it is not satisfying. If I can go that far spontaneously, then I must shed that result as an old skin and inquire further into the unknown, or at least the not-yet-known-to-myself.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The best calculation is the absence of calculation. Once you have attained a certain level of recognition, others generally figure that when you do something, it's for an intelligent reason. So it's really foolish to plot out your movements too carefully in advance. You're better off acting capriciously.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist while still achieving milestones and outcomes as required by certain funders and policy-makers.
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
People want to find a 'meaning' in everything and everyone. That's the disease of our age...
Pablo Picasso
Image
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?

A picture is not thought out and settled beforehand. While it is being done it changes as one's thoughts change.
