Salvador Dali
People love mystery, and that is why they love my paintings.
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
Genius has to pass over madness and madness over genius
Salvador Dali
The connoisseur does not drink wine but tastes its secrets
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
Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision.
Salvador Dali
I shall be so brief that I have already finished.
Salvador Dali
Someone like myself, who claimed to be a real madman, living and organized with a Pythagorean precision.
Salvador Dali
