"I do not seek. I find...." - Quote by Pablo Picasso

“What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.”

“While I am working I am not conscious of what I am putting on the canvas.”

“If you have five elements available use only four. If you have four elements use three.”

“Imagination is the highest form of research.”

“It is childish to rest in the discovery of mere coincidences, or of partial and extraneous laws.”

“If there is nothing new on the earth, still the traveler always has a resource in the skies. They are constantly turning a new page to view. The wind sets the types on this blue ground, and the inquiring may always read a new truth there.”

“Upon the creatures we have made, we are, ourselves, at last, dependent.”

“As a writer, as a creator, I'm giving you my experiences. But just take what I give you. You ain't got to pry beyond that.”

“An author should never conceive himself as bringing into existence beauty or wisdom which did not exist before, but simply and solely as trying to embody in terms of his own art some reflection of eternal Beauty and Wisdom.”
