More quotes by Salvador Dali
Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature. Never try to correct them. On the contrary: rationalize them, understand them thoroughly. After that, it will be possible for you to sublimate them.
Salvador Dali
New skin, a new land! And a land of liberty, if that is possible! I chose the geology of a land that was new to me.
Salvador Dali
Nothing proves the truth of surrealism so much as photography. The Zeiss lens has unexpected faculties of surprise!
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
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
I think that the sweetest freedom for a man on earth consists in being able to live, if he likes, without having the need to work.
Salvador Dali
God is just another artist, like me.
Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali
At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since.
Salvador Dali
Forever will be you and me.
Salvador Dali
Who knows how to taste wine never drinks wine again, but tastes secrets instead
Salvador Dali
Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature, understand them thoroughly.
Salvador Dali
Every morning when I awake, the greatest of joys is mine: that of being Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali
The secret of my influence has always been that it remained secret.
Salvador Dali
There are some days when I think I'm going to die from an overdose of satisfaction.
Salvador Dali
I seated ugliness on my knee, and almost immediately grew tired of it.
Salvador Dali
Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.
Salvador Dali
Everything that is contradictory creates life
Salvador Dali
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
Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision.
