I have sketched since a young age, so there's always been an artistic side, a visual side to my personality.
Mark Parker
Image
Before I was a parent I was struck by Rilke, who, as you know, didn't go to his daughter's wedding because he was writing a poem that day. That was the ideal for artistic behavior in 1950. That's the way I wanted to live.
Robert Bly
Image
Always have one artistic thing that is pure, at least one thing, where you don’t compromise. You can do other things to make money, but have one pure area.
James Franco
Image
For a long time I wanted to draw, but I could never get the proportions right. My still life sketches were the artistic equivalent of someone who has misjudged the space constraints of a postcard, the handwriting shrinking uncomfortably at the bottom.
Sloane Crosley
Image
To vest a few fallible men — prosecutors, judges, jurors — with vast powers of literary or artistic censorship, to convert them into what J. S. Mill called a moral police, is to make them despotic arbiters of literary products. If one day they ban mediocre books as obscene, another day they may do likewise to a work of genius.
Jerome Frank
Image
I have a lot of weird interests, but everything I do is artistic.
Ansel Elgort
Image
It is the death of present art when it returns again and again to the model. Use of the model is only an intermediate stage in artistic development. Create out of a living spirituality to overcome everything naturalistic.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The base of artistic pursuit is ambivalence and complexity. And that's what I try to do.
Fernando Perez
Image
You know, when you choose to make your living as an actor, it's all fine and good to look at it as some kind of artistic endeavor. At its best, it is that. But the fact is, most of the actors out there don't earn $3 million a picture and can't afford to take two years off between films and look for the right thing. Most of us are tradesmen.
James Spader
Image
I support artistic freedom and always have.
Neil Portnow
Image
I'm convinced that in a healthy society, artistic norms should be constantly under question which is not of course, to deny the need for continuity.
Earle Brown
Image
I make my films because I'm affected by a situation, by something that makes me want to reflect on it, that lends itself to an artistic reflection. I always aim to look directly at what I'm dealing with. I think it's a task of dramatic art to confront us with things that in the entertainment industry are usually swept under the rug.
Michael Haneke
Image
I've been and am absurdly over-estimated. There are no supermen and I'm quite ordinary, and will say so whatever the artistic results. In that point I'm one of the few people who tell the truth about myself.
T. E. Lawrence
Image
Suffering is the main condition of the artistic experience.
Samuel Beckett
Image
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
Aristotle
Image
A particular ikon an aid to devotion may be itself a word of art, but that is logically accidental its artistic merits will not make it a better ... ikon. They may make it a worse one.
C. S. Lewis
Image
The artistic temperament is a disease that affects amateurs. Artists of a large and wholesome vitality get rid of their art easily, as they breathe easily or perspire easily. But in artists of less force, the thing becomes a pressure, and produces a definite pain, which is called the artistic temperament.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Image
Some are able and humane men and some are low-grade individuals with the morals of a goat, the artistic integrity of a slot machine, and the manners of a floorwalker with delusions of grandeur.
Raymond Chandler
Image
I'm learning about filming, and just conceptualizing as well. I think it's a good artistic inroad, even to music as well.
Stevie Jackson
Image
Artistic honesty sometimes prevents an artist from being born.
Stanislaw Jerzy Lec
Image
Folklore is artistic communication in small groups.
Dan Ben-Amos
Image
My father was an artist. When life was harder and he couldn't get jobs, he painted houses, but he was artistic. When I went to see his work, it was special. Somewhere along the line, I felt I was special. I didn't know why.
Ralph Lauren
Image
I'm interested in confronting police brutality and police abuse of cracking down on street performers and street artists, but also in valorizing street art as legitimate performance within the artistic sphere, where it's so often conflated with pan-handling and begging and not successful art. I want to change laws around street performance.
Kalan Sherrard
Image
Television production is so insane. There's so many moving parts and flying pieces and you're desperate to make it cohesive and artistic and have something to say about the human condition that feels like it has value to its existence.
