More quotes by Pablo Picasso
The earth doesn't have a housekeeper to do the dusting. And the dust that falls on it every day remains there. Everything that's come down to us from the past has been conserved by dust.
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
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
Drink to me. Drink to my health. You know I can't drink any more.
Pablo Picasso
Imitators? All right! Disciples if you like. But disciples be damned. It's not interesting.
Pablo Picasso
The Parthenon is really only a farmyard over which someone put a roof colonades and sculptures were added because there were people in Athens who happened to be working and wanted to express themselves.
Pablo Picasso
The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.
Pablo Picasso
Love must be proven by facts and not by reasons.
Pablo Picasso
In art, practice always comes before theory.
Pablo Picasso
Abstract art is only painting. And what's so dramatic about that? There is no abstract art. One must always begin with something. Afterwards one can remove all semblance of reality there is no longer any danger as the idea of the object has left an indelible imprint.
Pablo Picasso
When I haven't any blue I use red.
Pablo Picasso
Enough of Art. It's Art that kills us. People no longer want to do painting: they make art.
Pablo Picasso
When I paint I feel that all the artists of the past are behind me.
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
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
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
The earth doesn't have a housekeeper to do the dusting.
Pablo Picasso
I don't say everything, but I paint everything.
Pablo Picasso
Everybody has the same energy potential. The average person wastes his in a dozen little ways. I bring mine to bear on one thing only: my paintings, and everything else is sacrificed to it...myself included.
Pablo Picasso
To me there is no past or future in art. If a work of art does not live in the present, it must not be considered at all.
Pablo Picasso
