art

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
There is nothing more dreadful than imagination without taste.
John F. Kennedy
We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth.
John Lennon
My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.
Kurt Vonnegut
The practice of art isn't to make a living. It's to make your soul grow.
Leonardo Da Vinci
Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
All art is but imitation of nature.
Madonna Ciccone
I am my own experiment. I am my own work of art.
Pablo Picasso
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape.
Bad artists copy. Great artists steal.
Art is the lie that tells the truth.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into the sun.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Paul Gauguin
The history of modern art is also the history of the progressive loss of art's audience. Art has increasingly become the concern of the artist and the bafflement of the public.
Plato
There are three arts which are concerned with all things: one which uses, another which makes, and a third which imitates them.
Quentin Tarantino
If I've made it a little easier for artists to work in violence, great! I've accomplished something.
Roger Ebert
All good art is about something deeper than it admits.
Salvador Dali
The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad.
T.S. Eliot
Anxiety is the hand maiden of creativity.
Tom Stoppard
Skill without imagination is craftsmanship and gives us many useful objects such as wickerwork picnic baskets. Imagination without skill gives us modern art.
