More quotes by 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
Photographers, along with dentists, are the two professions never satisfied with what they do. Every dentist would like to be a doctor and inside every photographer is a painter trying to get out.
Pablo Picasso
Inspiration exists, but you have to find it working.
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 consider a work of art as a product of calculations, calculations that are frequently unknown to the author himself.
Pablo Picasso
What one does is what counts. Not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Style is often something which locks the painter into the same vision, the same technique, the same formula during years and years, sometimes during one's whole lifetime.
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
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
If all the ways I have been along were marked on a map and joined up with a line, it might represent a minotaur.
Pablo Picasso
Each time I undertake to paint a picture I have a sensation of leaping into space. I never know whether I shall fall on my feet. It is only later that I begin to estimate more exactly the the effect of my work.
Pablo Picasso
Different themes inevitably require different methods of expression. This does not imply either evolution or progress it is a matter of following the idea one wants to express and the way in which one wants to express it.
Pablo Picasso
You can go to the moon or walk under the sea, or anything else you like, but painting remains painting because it eludes such investigation. It remains there like a question. And it alone gives the answer.
Pablo Picasso
Good taste is the enemy of creativity.
Pablo Picasso
Forcing yourself to use restricted means is the sort of restraint that liberates invention. It obliges you to make a kind of progress that you can't even imagine in advance.
Pablo Picasso
Have you noticed that bones are always modeled and not carved, that you always have the impression they come from a mold, that they were first modeled in clay? Any bone you look at, you always find fingerprints on it.
Pablo Picasso
I don't say everything, but I paint everything.
Pablo Picasso
Drink to me. Drink to my health. You know I can't drink any more.
Pablo Picasso
For my part, I can't do anything else but what I am doing.
Pablo Picasso
Don't waste your youth growing up.
