"We all know that Art is not..." - Quote by Pablo Picasso

“When you're really young, you're young for life.”

“When you begin a picture you often make some pretty discoveries. You must be on guard against these. Destroy the thing, do it over several times. In each destroying of a beautiful discovery, the artist does not really suppress it, but rather condenses it, makes it more substantial. What comes out in the end is the result of discarded finds. Otherwise you become your own connoisseur.”

“A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.”

“Nine times out of ten, in the arts as in life, there is actually no truth to be discovered; there is only error to be exposed.”

“If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.”

“If the writer does not cry, the reader does not cry.”

“It doesn't occur to me at this moment to say more; another time, perhaps tomorrow, I may have more to say, but always the same thing and about the same, for only gypsies, robber gangs and swindlers follow the adage that where a person has once been he is never to go again.”

“Be a free thinker and don't accept everything you hear as truth. Be critical and evaluate what you believe in.”

“It was my tongue that swore; my heart is unsworn.”
