Forever will be you and me.
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
Someone like myself, who claimed to be a real madman, living and organized with a Pythagorean precision.
Salvador Dali
New skin, a new land! And a land of liberty, if that is possible! I chose the geology of a land that was new to me.
Salvador Dali

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

Salvador Dali
Qui sait déguster ne boit plus jamais de vin, mais goûte des secrets
Salvador Dali
Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure - that of being Salvador Dali.
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
Physiological expenditure is a superficial way of self-expression. People who incline toward physical love accomplish nothing at all.
Salvador Dali
There are some days when I think I'm going to die from an overdose of satisfaction.
Salvador Dali

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
Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.
Salvador Dali
The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad.
Salvador Dali
Do not be afraid of perfection - you will never attain it.
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
