"Is there anything more dangerous than sympathetic..." - Quote by Pablo Picasso

“It is a well-known fact that we see the faults in other's works more readily than we do in our own.”

“In art, there is neither past nor future. The art that is not in the present will never be.”

“...the right to free expression is something one seizes, not something one is given.... if it does exist, it exists to be used against the established order.... There is absolute opposition between the artist and the state.”

“Women are never what they seem to be. There is the woman you see and there is the woman who is hidden. Buy the gift for the woman who is hidden.”

“We don't get to know people when they come to us; we must go to them to find out what they are like.”

“Anyone who renounces the world must love all men, for he renounces their world too. He thus begins to have some inkling of the true nature of man, which cannot but be loved, always assuming that one is its peer.”

“If there was less sympathy in the world, there would be less trouble in the world.”

“Sympathy with joy intensifies the sum of sympathy in the world, sympathy with pain does not really diminish the amount of pain.”

“Pity may represent little more than the impersonal concern which prompts the mailing of a check, but true sympathy is the personal concern which demands the giving of one's soul.”
