Why learn a number like pi to so many decimal places? The answer I gave then as I do now is that pi is for me an extremely beautiful and utterly unique thing. Like the Mona Lisa or a Mozart symphony, pi is its own reason for loving it  (Mona Lisa Quotes) The wisest choice would be the one who would win. No sense running Mona Lisa in a beauty contest. I’d be for the most right, viable candidate who could win. If you could convince me that Barry Goldwater could win, I’d vote for him. [1967]  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Inside the museum infinity goes up on trial. Voices echo, ‘This is what salvation must be like after a while.’ But Mona Lisa must have had the highway blues; you can tell by the way she smiles  (Mona Lisa Quotes) My movies are film-paintings - moving portraits captured on celluloid. I’ll layer that with sound to create a unique mood -- like if the Mona Lisa opened her mouth, and there would be a wind, and she’d turn back and smile. It would be strange and beautiful  (Mona Lisa Quotes) What is Mona Lisa thinking? Nothing, of course. Her blankness is her menace and our fear. [...] Walter Pater is to call her a ‘vampire,’ coasting through history on her secret tasks  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Leonardo’s Mona Lisa sure would have lost out if he had spent only 2 of the 4 or 5 years he took to complete it. It is thinking about him and Ryder, among others, that partly makes me feel so awful to send away a ‘half-baked’ painting  (Mona Lisa Quotes) I’m a producer. I’m a musician. And my job is to come in and, you know, put - you know, I treat all of the artists that I work with, like, you know, the way da Vinci was looking at Mona Lisa, you know, there’s an interesting backdrop  (Mona Lisa Quotes) I feel like vocals are to music what portraits are to painting. They’re the humanity. Landscapes are good and fine, but at the end of the day everyone loves the Mona Lisa  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Well, is it pornography or is it art? Well as far as I’m concerned, the Mona Lisa is art  (Mona Lisa Quotes) It is not enough to deface the Mona Lisa because that does not kill the Mona Lisa. All art of the past must be destroyed  (Mona Lisa Quotes) How could we possibly appreciate the Mona Lisa if Leonardo had written at the bottom of the canvas: ‘The lady is smiling because she is hiding a secret from her lover.’ This would shackle the viewer to reality, and I don’t want this to happen to 2001  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Nothing is static. Even the Mona Lisa is falling apart. Since fight club, I can wiggle half the teeth in my jaw. Maybe self-improvement isn’t the answer. Maybe self-destruction is the answer  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Leonardo’s Mona Lisa is just a thousand thousand smears of paint. Michelangelo’s David is just a million hits with a hammer. We’re all of us a million bits put together the right way  (Mona Lisa Quotes) You know, people call mystery novels or thrillers ‘puzzles.’ I never understood that, because when I buy a puzzle, I already know what it is. It’s on the box. And even if I don’t, if it’s a 5,000-piece puzzle of the ‘Mona Lisa’, it’s not like I put the last piece in and go, ‘I had no idea it’s the ‘Mona Lisa’!’  (Mona Lisa Quotes) The geometry of landscape and situation seems to create its own systems of time, the sense of a dynamic element which is cinematizing the events of the canvas, translating a posture or ceremony into dynamic terms. The greatest movie of the 20th century is the Mona Lisa, just as the greatest novel is Gray’s Anatomy  (Mona Lisa Quotes) One minute you’re bleeding. The next minute you’re hemorrhaging. The next minute you’re painting the Mona Lisa  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Also, since art is a vehicle for the transmission of ideas through form, the reproduction of the form only reinforces the concept. It is the idea that is being reproduced. Anyone who understands the work of art owns it. We all own the Mona Lisa  (Mona Lisa Quotes) With all due respect, the Mona Lisa is overrated  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Rock and Roll adolescent hoodlums storm the streets of all nations. They rush into the Louvre and throw acid in the Mona Lisa's face  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Did you ever see that painting the Mona Lisa. It always reminds me of a reporter listening to a politician  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Well, now I felt horrible. I'd marred perfectly good ass cheeks for no reason. It was as if I'd sneezed on the Mona Lisa  (Mona Lisa Quotes) Da Vinci painted one Mona Lisa. Beethoven composed one Fifth Symphony. And God made one version of you  (Mona Lisa Quotes) I'm at that age where I watch such things with two minds, one that cackles at these capers and another that never gets much beyond a rather jaded and self-conscious smile, like the Mona Lisa  (Mona Lisa Quotes)
