Life is too short to remain unnoticed
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
Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision.
Salvador Dali

Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature, understand them thoroughly.

Salvador Dali
Image
[I am a] contradictory and paradoxical man.
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
Image
I shall be so brief that I have already finished.
Salvador Dali
Image
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
Image
God is just another artist, like me.
Salvador Dali
Image
The daily life of a genius, his sleep, his digestion, he ecstasies, his nails, his colds, his blood, his life and death are essentially different from the rest of mankind.
Salvador Dali
Image
Eroticism, hallucinogenic drugs, nuclear science, Gaudi's Gothic architecture, my love of gold - there is a common denominator in all of it: God is present in everything. The same magic is at the heart of all things, and all roads lead to the same revelation: we are children of God, and the entire universe tends towards the perfection of mankind.
Salvador Dali
Image
Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure - that of being Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali
Image
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
Image
There is only one difference between a madman and me. The madman thinks he is sane. I know I am mad.
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
Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach 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
The famous soft watches are nothing else than the tender, extravagant, solitary, paranoic-critical camembert oftime and space.
Salvador Dali
Image
All of my knowledge, of both science and religion, I incorporate into the classical tradition of my painting.
