Bureaucrats: they are dead at 30 and buried at 60. They are like custard pies you can't nail them to a wall.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Image
Sometimes magazines will take artist's creative choices too literally they assume that I actually live the way I do in music videos. For example: the whole Dirty thing. Do you think I wear chaps to the grocery store?
Christina Aguilera
Image
I feel a lot of cities are like, you go and you are trying to do your art, and there are so many other artists there who are so brilliant. And it's kind of like they stomp on the scene, and they are like, You're not already Picasso? Get the hell out of here! And Memphis is like, Well, you'll get there one day!
Valerie June
Image
When I talk about music in Memphis, it's a place you can go if you are a beginning artist or anywhere in your career, and you can incubate.

You cannot hide your growth as an artist is not separate from your growth as a human being: it is all visible.
Anne Bogart
Image
Artists are interested in pictures as sources of ideas for their work. Where the pictures come from and how they are made is of little concern to them.
Van Deren Coke
Image
A friend of mine says his two favorite artists are Picasso and Rembrandt. Picasso because he paints the beautiful in such an ugly fashion. And Rembrandt because he paints the ugly so beautifully.
Anna Torv
Image
Any artist is an instrument-and that's exactly why you can't do it all the time. You can only do it when it's happening, when it's coming through. No matter how much you may want to do it, if it's not happening then it's simply not happening.
Van Morrison
Image
The life of an artist is not all glamorous. It's a lot of work. A lot of people think that it's very easy.
Selena
Image
Whatever happens in my life, whether I stand up or I fall down, whatever the case, I'm going to use it in my art. Why? Because I'm an artist and I have to.
Jill Scott
Image
I don't want to compare myself to Picasso, but he had four or five periods in his life. Any good artist grows and changes and matures.
Tucker Max
Image
A true artist should have no secrets. On the stage, you must be able to transmit every emotion to the spectator.
Anna Pavlova
Image
I know what I want, and I know what needs to be done to make my performance better. So I do these little askings, about the lights and costumes. Its not the diva speaking. Its the artist who knows how it has to be done.
Anna Netrebko
Image
There are forms of art that I might not like to do myself, but I still have respect for the artists who create it.
Vanessa Paradis
Image
I love art dealers. In some ways, they're my favorite people in the art world. Really. I love that they put their money where their taste is, create their own aesthetic universes, support artists, employ people, and do all of this while letting us see art for free. Many are visionaries.
Jerry Saltz
Image
Little did the artist know, who neglected his appearance in favor of his work, that the years would produce a breed that spent hours meticulously acquiring a neglected look to appear like an artist.
Vanna Bonta
Image
There are two kinds of artists in this world those that work because the spirit is in them, and they cannot be silent if they would, and those that speak from a conscientious desire to make apparent to others the beauty that has awakened their own admiration.
Anna Katharine Green
Image
The primary dues a writer or any artist pays is to remain sentient, and to forfeit the illusionary luxury of such anesthetics as avoidance, numbness, and denials.
Vanna Bonta
Image
I like to work in the real world, so I do a lot of searching or just simple looking. But I'm not above tweaking reality and making something up. I don't think there are any rules in art. It's not so much what you see as it is the significance you, the artist, see in it.
Keith Carter
Image
Do you want to be an artist so that the whole world will look at you, or do you want to be an artist because you would like to use your ability to attract attention, to have the world see itself through you differently?
Anna Deavere Smith
Image
You know, real artists, we expose our flaws. We long for intimacy.
Anna Deavere Smith
Image
That artists are called to be more responsible and 'true' is a tip of hat to their power.
Anna Deavere Smith
Image
Great art can only be created out of love.
James A. Baldwin
Image
Thoughts and emotions which never perhaps were in the mind of the artist, never were anticipated, never were intended by him - may be strongly suggested by his work. This is an important part of the morals of art, which we must never lose sight of. Art is not only for pleasure and profit, but for good and for evil.
Anna Brownell Jameson
