I open events for museums and I do charity work and photography.
Bill Wyman
Image
Music is art to me, and you don't censor art. You don't go into a museum and censor things.
Iggy Azalea
Image
The museums are here to teach the history of art and something more as well, for, if they stimulate in the weak a desire to imitate, they furnish the strong with the means of their emancipation.
Edgar Degas
Image
The museums and parks are graveyards above the ground- congealed memories of the past that act as a pretext for reality.
Robert Smithson
Image
And if out of a million visitors there is even one to whom art means something, that is enough to justify museums.
Pierre-Auguste Renoir
Image
I felt most beautiful on the red carpet in Givenchys sheer lace dress at a dinner hosted by Givenchy in honor of Marina Abramovich at the closing of her Museum of Modern Art retrospective, The Artist is Present, in 2010. It was the first time I had been dressed for an event, and everybody just fell in love with the dress.

I don't know whether the future or 2018 exists or not, but if it exists, I'm offering a show to a museum in Australia titled Time Reversed. Time is going backwards.
Hiroshi Sugimoto
Image
I moved to New York in the 1970s and started writing when I was at the Whitney Museum Independent Study Program.
Jenny Holzer

I'm lucky. Usually you're dead to get your own museum, but I'm still alive to see mine.
Yogi Berra
Image
Museums are just a lot of lies, and the people who make art their business are mostly imposters. We have infected the pictures in museums with all our stupidities, all our mistakes, all our poverty of spirit. We have turned them into petty and ridiculous things.
Pablo Picasso
Image
A lot of the stuff I've done is inspired by the location. Usually my works are pretty site-specific. There are a lot of shows that are older works, but often when I do new work for a show, it tends to talk to the space or the idea of the museum.
Ragnar Kjartansson
Image
Some of the '80s movies I did are sort of museum pieces. St. Elmo's Fire is great as a sort of kitschy, Oh, my god, I can't believe we wore that type of movie.
Rob Lowe
Image
Wisdom is a living stream, not an icon to be preserved in a museum. Only when a practitioner finds the spring of wisdom in his or her own life can it flow to a future generation
Nhat Hanh
Image
I've enjoyed photography, ever since I was a teenager, and I'm still at it. I've had shows in various cities, around the country, and I have a number of pieces in permanent collections in museums that I'm very proud of.
Leonard Nimoy
Image
Nobody would say the cowshed was heaven and nobody would say the inhuman torture of so many victims be called a revolution of the proletariat. ... A museum should be established to remind China of the follies and disasters that had fallen from 1966 to 1976. We cannot forget what had happened and history should not repeat itself.
Ba Jin

There are so many great galleries and museums in London, but they can be very crowded during the day.
Zaha Hadid
Image
I seldom go into a natural history museum without feeling as if I were attending a funeral.
John Burroughs
Image
This is *our* Universe, our museum of wonder and beauty, our cathedral.
John Archibald Wheeler
Image
The only place where poverty should be is in museums.
Muhammad Yunus

You want to know how I think art should be taught to children? Take them to a museum and say, 'This is art, and you can't do it.
Steve Martin
Image
The time was when a library was very like a museum and the librarian a mouser among dusty books. The time is when the library is a school and the librarian in the highest sense a teacher.
Melvil Dewey
Image
I would love to see as many of the black players as possible in today's Major League Baseball make every effort to go to the Negro Leagues Museum and get a first-hand view of how it all started.
Ferguson Jenkins
Image
Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering - because you can't take it in all at once.
Audrey Hepburn
Image
There are self-made millionaires - their aspiration is first to make money. But the once that goal is achieved, they have to look for something and sometimes they become patrons of art or museums. And that is how the world should go.
