More quotes by Paul Cezanne
I am not altogether displeased with the shirt-front.
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
The contour eludes me.
Paul Cezanne
Tell me, do you think I'm going mad? I sometimes wonder, you know.
Paul Cezanne
All pictures painted inside in the studio will never be as good as the things done outside.
Paul Cezanne
I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting.
Paul Cezanne
Fruits ... like having their portrait painted. They seem to sit there and ask your forgiveness for fading. Their thought is given off with their perfumes. They come with all their scents, they speak of the fields they have left, the rain which has nourished them, the daybreaks they have seen.
Paul Cezanne
If I think, everything is lost.
Paul Cezanne
I have not tried to reproduce nature I have represented it.
Paul Cezanne
Perhaps I was born too early. I was more the painter of your generation than of mine.
Paul Cezanne
Time and reflection change the sight little by little 'till we come to understand.
Paul Cezanne
Painting is damned difficult - you always think you've got it, but you haven't.
Paul Cezanne
The Louvre is a good book to consult, but it must only be an intermediary. The real and immense study that must be taken up is the manifold picture of nature.
Paul Cezanne
Keep good company - that is, go to the Louvre.
Paul Cezanne
I am a pupil of Pissarro.
Paul Cezanne
I cannot attain the intensity that is unfolded before my senses. I have not the magnificent richness of colouring that animates nature.
Paul Cezanne
The awareness of our own strength makes us modest.
Paul Cezanne
I am the primitive of the method I have invented.
Paul Cezanne
What I am trying to translate to you is more mysterious, it is entwined in the very roots of being, in the implacable source of sensations.
Paul Cezanne
You have no idea how life-giving it is to find around one a youth that agrees not to bury one on the spot.
Paul Cezanne
