More quotes by Salvador Dali
Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.
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
An elegant woman is a woman who despises you and has no hair under her arms.
Salvador Dali
Everyone should eat hashish, but only once.
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
I shall be so brief that I have already finished.
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
This grandiose tragedy that we call modern art.
Salvador Dali
Wars have never hurt anybody except the people who die.
Salvador Dali
In order to acquire a growing and lasting respect in society, it is a good thing, if you possess great talent, to give, early in your youth, a very hard kick to the right shin of the society that you love. After that, be a snob.
Salvador Dali
I want to perceive and understand the hidden powers and laws of things, in order to have them in my power.
Salvador Dali
Nothing proves the truth of surrealism so much as photography. The Zeiss lens has unexpected faculties of surprise!
Salvador Dali
You have to systematically create confusion, it sets creativity free. Everything that is contradictory creates life
Salvador Dali
I do not paint a portrait to look like the subject, rather does the person grow to look like his portrait.
Salvador Dali
Who knows how to taste wine never drinks wine again, but tastes secrets instead
Salvador Dali
The problem with the youth of today' is that one is no longer part of it.
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
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
Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.
Salvador Dali
Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.
Salvador Dali
