Everyone should eat hashish, but only once.
Salvador Dali
Image
We must always remember that the Chinese revolution was not a peasant's revolution, but one of the extreme Right.
Salvador Dali
Image
Liking money like I like it, is nothing less than mysticism. Money is a glory.
Salvador Dali
Image
I do not paint a portrait to look like the subject, rather does the person grow to look like his portrait.
Salvador Dali
Image
The connoisseur does not drink wine but tastes its secrets
Salvador Dali

Qui sait déguster ne boit plus jamais de vin, mais goûte des secrets
Salvador Dali
Image
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
Image
I shall be so brief that I have already finished.
Salvador Dali
Image
The famous soft watches are nothing else than the tender, extravagant, solitary, paranoic-critical camembert oftime and space.
Salvador Dali
Image
One day it will have to be officially admitted that what we have christened reality is an even greater illusion than the world of dreams.
Salvador Dali
Image
Democratic societies are unfit for the publication of such thunderous revelations as I am in the habit of making.
Salvador Dali
Image
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
Image
If I'm going to be anything more than average, if anyone is going to remember me, then I need to go further, in art, in life, in everything!
Salvador Dali
Image

Salvador Dali
Image
Great wine requires a mad man to grow the vine, a wise man to watch over it, a lucid poet to make it, and a lover to drink it.
Salvador Dali
Image
Whatever happens, my audience mustn't know whether I am spoofing or being serious and likewise I mustn't know either. I am in a constant interrogation when does the deep and philosophically valid Dali begin, and where does the looney and preposterous Dali end?
Salvador Dali
Image
Do not strive to be a modern artist: it's the one thing, unfortunately, you can't help being.
Salvador Dali
Image
Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.
