More quotes by Pablo Picasso
I don't know in advance what I am going to put on canvas any more than I decide beforehand what colours I am going to use.
Pablo Picasso
I imitate everyone except myself.
Pablo Picasso
It is personality with a penny's worth of talent. Error which chances to rise above the commonplace.
Pablo Picasso
Don't waste your youth growing up.
Pablo Picasso
Beauty? To me it is a word without sense because I do not know where its meaning comes from nor where it leads to.
Pablo Picasso
To me there is no past or future in my art. If a work of art cannot live always in the present it must not be considered at all. The art of the Greeks, of the Egyptians, of the great painters who lived in other times, is not an art of the past perhaps it is more alive today than it ever was.
Pablo Picasso
Good taste is the enemy of creativity.
Pablo Picasso
Action is the foundation of all success.
Pablo Picasso
They are not men, they are not women, they are Americans.
Pablo Picasso
So there's only one tactic for the state: kill the seers.
Pablo Picasso
Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing?
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
Almost every evening, either I went to [Georges] Braque's studio or Braque came to mine. Each of us had to see what the other had done during the day. We criticized each other's work. A canvas wasn't finished unless both of us felt it was.
Pablo Picasso
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
It's a poor artist who borrows--a good artist steals.
Pablo Picasso
It is a well-known fact that we see the faults in other's works more readily than we do in our own.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
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
Art is never chaste. It ought to be forbidden to ignorant innocents, never allowed into contact with those not sufficiently prepared. Yes, art is dangerous. Where it is chaste, it is not art.
Pablo Picasso
When it comes right down to it, all you have is your self. Your Self is a sun with a thousand rays.
Pablo Picasso
