Talks on art are almost useless. The work which goes to bring progress in one's own subject is sufficient compensation for the incomprehension of imbeciles.

More quotes by Paul Cezanne
I want to die painting.
Paul Cezanne
One does not substitute oneself for the past, one merely adds to it a new link.
Paul Cezanne
Drawing and color are not separate at all in so far as you paint, you draw. The more color harmonizes, the more exact the drawing becomes. When the color achieves richness, the form attains its fullness also
Paul Cezanne
My age and health will never allow me to realize the dream of art I've been pursuing all my life.
Paul Cezanne
All the theories mess you up inside.
Paul Cezanne
I advance all of my canvas at one time.
Paul Cezanne
The landscape becomes human, becomes a thinking, living being within me. I become one with my picture...we merge in an iridescent chaos.
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
Right now a moment of time is passing by!... We must become that moment.
Paul Cezanne
An art which isn't based on feeling isn't an art at all.
Paul Cezanne
We live in a rainbow of chaos.
Paul Cezanne
The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.
Paul Cezanne
It's so fine and yet so terrible to stand in front of a blank canvas.
Paul Cezanne
I wish to die painting.
Paul Cezanne
All my compatriots are asses compared to me.
Paul Cezanne
The world doesn't understand me and I don't understand the world, that's why I've withdrawn from it.
Paul Cezanne
I am beginning to consider myself stronger than all those around me, and you know that the good opinion I have of myself has only been reached after mature consideration.
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
Everything in nature is formed upon the sphere, the cone and the cylinder. One must learn to paint these simple figures and then one can do all that he may wish.
Paul Cezanne
Here, on the river's verge, I could be busy for months without changing my place, simply leaning a little more to right or left.
Paul Cezanne
