Abstract Quotes

Each department of knowledge passes through three stages. The theoretic stage; the theological stage and the metaphysical or abstract stage Picture Quote #1

We shall suffer no attachment to literature, no taste for abstract discussion, no love of purely intellectual theories, to seduce us from our devotion to the cause of the oppressed, the down trodden, the insulted and injured masses of our fellow men Picture Quote #1

The longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real Picture Quote #1

You’re assisting the audience to understand; you’re giving them a bridge or an access. And if you don’t give them that, if you keep it more abstract, it’s almost more pure. It’s a cooler thing Picture Quote #1

I felt the most intense pleasure in piercing the stone in order to make an abstract form and space; quite a different sensation from that of doing it for the purpose of realism Picture Quote #1

We have wasted our spirit in the regions of the abstract and general just as the monks let it wither in the world of prayer and contemplation Picture Quote #1

It makes no difference whether a work is naturalistic or abstract; every visual expression follows the same fundamental laws Picture Quote #1

What goes on in abstract art is the proclaiming of aesthetic principles... It is in our own time that we have become aware of pure aesthetic considerations. Art never can be imitation Picture Quote #1

She was good at playing abstract confusion in the same way that a midget is good at being short Picture Quote #1

I am against the line and all its consequences: contours, forms, composition. All paintings of whatever sort, figurative or abstract, seem to me like prison windows in which the lines, precisely are the bars Picture Quote #1

There is no branch of mathematics, however abstract, which may not some day be applied to phenomena of the real world Picture Quote #1

Looking out of my window this lovely spring morning I see an azalea in full bloom. No, no! I do not see that; though that is the only way I can describe what I see. That is a proposition, a sentence, a fact; but what I perceive is not proposition, sentence, fact, but only an image which I make intelligible in part by means of a statement of fact. This statement is abstract; but what I see is concrete Picture Quote #1

Language is not an abstract construction of the learned, or of dictionary makers, but is something arising out of the work, needs, ties, joys, affections, tastes, of long generations of humanity, and has its bases broad and low, close to the ground Picture Quote #1

When I used to do abstract paintings at school, like everyone else, the tutor said these would make great curtains. I would always neglect the formal stuff that was going on by using colour, because colour kind of came naturally to me Picture Quote #1
