More quotes by Salvador Dali
Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing.
Salvador Dali
This grandiose tragedy that we call modern art.
Salvador Dali
Photographic data... is still and ESSENTIALLY THE SAFEST POETIC MEDIUM and the most agile process for catching the most delicate osmoses which exist between reality and surreality. The mere fact of photographic transposition means a total invention: the capture of a secret reality.
Salvador Dali
Paranoiac-critical activity makes the world of delirium pass onto the plane of reality.
Salvador Dali
Progressive art can assist people to learn not only about the objective forces at work in the society in which they live, but also about the intensely social character of their interior lives. Ultimately, it can propel people toward social emancipation.
Salvador Dali
Everyone should eat hashish, but only once.
Salvador Dali
We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art.
Salvador Dali
Every morning when I awake, the greatest of joys is mine: that of being Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali
There comes a moment in every person's life when they realise they adore me.
Salvador Dali
An elegant woman is a woman who despises you and has no hair under her arms.
Salvador Dali
I think that the sweetest freedom for a man on earth consists in being able to live, if he likes, without having the need to work.
Salvador Dali
Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.
Salvador Dali
We must always remember that the Chinese revolution was not a peasant's revolution, but one of the extreme Right.
Salvador Dali
Young people need plenty of difficulties to achieve something.... If you receive a little money for this, a little money for that, everything becomes mediocre, and collapses ignominiously.
Salvador Dali
You have to systematically create confusion, it sets creativity free. Everything that is contradictory creates life
Salvador Dali
It is not necessary for the public to know whether I am joking or whether I am serious, just as it is not necessary for me to know it myself.
Salvador Dali
Sometimes I spit on my mother's portrait for pleasure.
Salvador Dali
Life is too short to remain unnoticed
Salvador Dali
At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since.
Salvador Dali
[I am a] contradictory and paradoxical man.
Salvador Dali
