More quotes by Pablo Picasso
The only thing that's important is the legend created by the picture, and not whether it continues to exist itself.
Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso
No doubt, it is useful for an artist to know all the forms of art which have preceded or which accompany his. That is a sign of strength if it is a question of looking for a stimulus or recognizing mistakes he must avoid.
Pablo Picasso
I consider a work of art as a product of calculations, calculations that are frequently unknown to the author himself.
Pablo Picasso
Inspiration exists, but you have to find it working.
Pablo Picasso
I'm always doing things I can't do. That's how I get to do them.

Pablo Picasso
When you start with a portrait and try to find pure form by abstracting more and more, you must end up with an egg.
Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso
To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
Pablo Picasso
It's a poor artist who borrows--a good artist steals.
Pablo Picasso
For those who know how to read, I have painted my autobiography
Pablo Picasso
We can see the light but we are still inside the tunnel, ... We have not been able to get to all the communities.
Pablo Picasso
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?
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.
