More quotes by Pablo Picasso
I never calculate. That is why those who do, calculate so much less accurately than I.
Pablo Picasso
Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
Pablo Picasso
Why do you try to understand art? Do you try to understand the song of a bird?
Pablo Picasso
The quality of a painter depends on the amount of past he carries with him.
Pablo Picasso
Art is the best possible introduction to the culture of the world. I love it for the buried hopes, the garnered memories, the tender feelings it can summon at a touch. It washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Pablo Picasso
I try to paint what I have found and not what I look for. In art, intentions are of little importance.
Pablo Picasso
If everybody is looking for it, then nobody is finding it. If we were cultured, we would not be conscious of lacking culture. We would regard it as something natural and would not make so much fuss about it. And if we knew the real value of this word we would be cultured enough not to give it so much importance.
Pablo Picasso
I have discovered photography. Now I can kill myself. I have nothing else to learn.
Pablo Picasso
Success is dangerous. One begins to copy oneself, and to copy oneself is more dangerous than to copy others. It leads to sterility.
Pablo Picasso
The people who make art their business are mostly imposters.
Pablo Picasso
If you know exactly what you're going to do, what's the good in doing it?
Pablo Picasso
To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
Pablo Picasso
Reality is to be found in lightness and darkness.
Pablo Picasso
When they say that I am too old to make a thing, I try to make it immediately.
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
They'll sell you thousands of greens. Veronese green and emerald green and cadmium green and any sort of green you like but that particular green, never.
Pablo Picasso
Something sacred, that's it. We ought to be able to say that such and such a painting is as it is, with its capacity for power, because it is touched by God.
Pablo Picasso
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
Pablo Picasso
Sculpture is the best comment that a painter can make on painting.
Pablo Picasso
We don't grow older, we grow riper.
Pablo Picasso
