More quotes by 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
There is only one difference between a madman and me. The madman thinks he is sane. I know I am mad.
Salvador Dali
Someone like myself, who claimed to be a real madman, living and organized with a Pythagorean precision.
Salvador Dali
Every morning when I awake, the greatest of joys is mine: that of being Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali
I don't need drugs. I am drugs.
Salvador Dali
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
There comes a moment in every person's life when they realise they adore me.
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

Salvador Dali
I have Dalinian thought: the one thing the world will never have enough of is the outrageous.
Salvador Dali
Knowing how to look is a way of inventing.
Salvador Dali
Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.
Salvador Dali
Everything that is contradictory creates life
Salvador Dali
Forever will be you and me.
Salvador Dali
Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing.
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
Everyone should eat hashish, but only once.
Salvador Dali
The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad.
Salvador Dali
Physiological expenditure is a superficial way of self-expression. People who incline toward physical love accomplish nothing at all.
Salvador Dali
There are some days when I think I'm going to die from an overdose of satisfaction.
Salvador Dali
