"What I want is that my picture..." - Quote by Pablo Picasso

“The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.”

“We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.”

“What other movement determines the S line? Its aesthetic efficacity has long been noted by artists.”

“Music bypasses the conceptual mind. Music does not give you food for thought.”

“Music is the crystallization of sound.”

“Creativity has got to start with humanity.”

“And, speaking generally, passion seems not to be amenable to reason, but only to force.”

“Ask me no reason why I love you; for though Love use Reason for his physician, he admits him not for his counsellor.”

“All these primary impulses, not easily described in words, are the springs of man's actions.”
