Quote

Art is the best possible introduction to the culture of the world. I love it for the buried hopes, the garnered memories, the tender feelings it can summon at a touch. It washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

So there's only one tactic for the state: kill the seers.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Good taste is the enemy of creativity.
Pablo Picasso
Image
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
Pablo Picasso
Image
As far as I am concerned, a painting speaks for itself. What is the use of giving explanations, when all is said and done? A painter has only one language.
Pablo Picasso
Image
To know what you’re going to draw, you have to begin drawing... When I find myself facing a blank page, that’s always going through my head. What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When you are young and without success, you have only a few friends. Then, later on, when you are rich and famous, you still have a few... if you are lucky.
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
Youth has no age.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
There are chemists who spend their whole lives trying to find out what's in a lump of sugar. I want to know one thing. What is color?
Pablo Picasso
Image
Because I cannot work except in solitude, it is necessary that I live my work and that is impossible except in solitude.
Pablo Picasso
Image
In art intentions are not sufficient and, as we say in Spanish, love must be proved by deeds and not by reasons. What one does is what counts and not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I do not evolve, I am.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The path to youth takes a lifetime.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Art is a lie that makes us realise truth ... that is given us to understand.
Pablo Picasso
Image
We don't grow older, we grow riper.
Pablo Picasso
Image
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
Image
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I don't say everything, but I paint everything.
