"The connoisseur of painting gives only bad..." - Quote by Pablo Picasso

“A plagiarist steals from one person. A true artist steals from everybody.”

“And fame, for a painter means sales, gains, fortune, riches. And today, as you know, I am celebrated. I am rich.”

“When I paint a woman in an armchair, the armchair is there to show illness and death-or as a protection.”

“When I was a kid, a book I read advised young artist to be themselves. That decided it for me. I was a corny kind of guy, so I went in for corn.”

“A picture is poem without words.”

“No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader.”

“Today the large organization is lord and master, and most of its employees have been desensitized much as were the medieval peasants who never knew they were serfs.”

“This country has far more problems than it deserves and far more solutions than it applies.”

“Learned conversation is either the affectation of the ignorant or the profession of the mentally unemployed.”
