More quotes by Salvador Dali
And now the announcement of Watson and Crick about DNA. This is for me the real proof of the existence of God.
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
Everything that is contradictory creates life
Salvador Dali
Just as I am astonished that a bank clerk never eats a cheque, so too am I astonished that no painter before me ever thought of painting a soft watch.
Salvador Dali
The connoisseur does not drink wine but tastes its secrets
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad.
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
This grandiose tragedy that we call modern art.
Salvador Dali
If you refuse to study anatomy, the arts of drawing and perspective, the mathematics of aesthetics, and the science of color, let me tell you that this is more a sign of laziness than of genius.
Salvador Dali
Drawing is the honesty of the art.
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
God invented man, and man invented the metric system.
Salvador Dali
