To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Today, as you know, I am famous and very rich. But when I am alone with myself, I haven't the 'courage' to consider myself an artist, in the great and ancient sense of that word... I am only a public entertainer, who understands his age.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When you see what you express through photography, you realize all the things that can no longer be the objectives of painting. Why should an artist persist in treating subjects that can be established so clearly with the lens of a camera?

Art is not truth art is the lie which makes us see the truth.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I try to paint what I have found and not what I look for. In art, intentions are of little importance.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The people no longer seek consolation in art. But the refined people, the rich, the idlers seek the new, the extraordinary, the extravagant, the scandalous.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
In art, practice always comes before theory.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I am exhausted if I don't work.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When I paint I feel that all the artists of the past are behind me.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To model an object is to possess it.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I who have been involved with all styles of painting can assure you that the only things that fluctuate are the waves of fashion which carry the snobs and speculators the number of true connoisseurs remains more or less the same.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Good designers copy great designers steal.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.
