More quotes by 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
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
The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.
Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Pablo Picasso
Formerly pictures used to move towards completion in progressive stages. Each day would bring something new. A picture was a sum of additions. With me, picture is a sum of destructions.

Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso
The chief enemy of creativity is 'good' sense.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Pablo Picasso
When I haven't any blue I use red.
Pablo Picasso
Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, or the painter?
Pablo Picasso
We artists are indestructible even in a prison, or in a concentration camp, I would be almighty in my own world of art, even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell.
Pablo Picasso
Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?
Pablo Picasso
It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.
Pablo Picasso
So there's only one tactic for the state: kill the seers.
Pablo Picasso
I have discovered photography. Now I can kill myself. I have nothing else to learn.
Pablo Picasso
