More quotes by Paul Cezanne
The contour eludes me.
Paul Cezanne
I have not tried to reproduce nature I have represented it.
Paul Cezanne
I lack the magnificent richness of color that animates nature.
Paul Cezanne
It's not just about looking and copying, it's about feeling too
Paul Cezanne
All the theories mess you up inside.
Paul Cezanne
Right now a moment of time is passing by!... We must become that moment.
Paul Cezanne
The approbation of others is a stimulus of which one must sometimes be wary. The feeling of one's own strength makes one modest.
Paul Cezanne
Yes, a bunch of carrots, observed directly, painted simply in the personal way one sees it, worth more than the Ecole's everlasting slices of buttered bread, that tobacco-juice painting, slavishly done by the book? The day is coming when a single original carrot will give birth to a revolution.
Paul Cezanne
One can do good things without being very much of a harmonist or a colourist. It is sufficient to have a sense of art - and this sense is doubtless the horror of the bourgeois.
Paul Cezanne
I owe you the truth in painting, and I will tell it to you.
Paul Cezanne
It took me 40 years to find out that painting is not sculpture.
Paul Cezanne
Everything in nature takes its form from the sphere, the cone and the cylinder.
Paul Cezanne
With a painter's temperament, all that's needed are the means of expression sufficient to be intelligible to the wide public.
Paul Cezanne
Taste is the best judge. It is rare. Art only addresses itself to an excessively small number of individuals.
Paul Cezanne
If I think, I am lost.
Paul Cezanne
I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting.
Paul Cezanne
The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.
Paul Cezanne
Pure drawing is an abstraction.
Paul Cezanne
To achieve progress nature alone counts, and the eye is trained through contact with her. It becomes concentric by looking and working.
Paul Cezanne
Genius is the ability to renew one's emotions in daily experience.
Paul Cezanne
