Art Quotes

What is art? It is not just nature, it is nurtured nature. It is intelligence applied to what physical ability you have Picture Quote #1

The function of art is to free the spirit of man and to invigorate and enlarge his vision Picture Quote #1

Every writer must reconcile, as best he may, the conflicting claims of consistency and variety, of rigour in detail and elegance in the whole. The present author humbly confesses that, to him, geometry is nothing at all, if not a branch of art Picture Quote #1

If we actually love what we’re doing and we go and do what we love, and every day we get up because we’re really happy to get up and go and do what we do, you can’t actually do that without expression, and art forms part of that mix of expression that makes the whole package of life so enjoyable to be in Picture Quote #1

Nature does not create works of art. It is we, and the faculty of interpretation peculiar to the human mind, that see art Picture Quote #1

We attempted perfection; we wanted an object to be without flaw, so we cut the papers with a razor, pasted them down meticulously, but it buckled and was ruined... that is why we decided to tear prewrinkled paper, so that in the finished work of art imperfection would be an integral part, as if at birth death were built in Picture Quote #1

The true artist does not create art as an end in itself; he creates art for human beings. Humanity is the goal Picture Quote #1

Art is about communication. Art that lasts through the ages works symbolically. It triggers feelings and experiences that we’ve all had Picture Quote #1

Nursing encompasses an art, a humanistic orientation, a feeling for the value of the individual, and an intuitive sense of ethics, and of the appropriateness of action taken Picture Quote #1

All the art of the past rises up before me, the art of all ages and all civilizations, everything becomes simultaneous, as if space had replaced time. Memories of works of art blend with affective memories, with my work, with my whole life Picture Quote #1

Only freedom from prejudice and tireless zeal avail for the most holy of the endeavours of mankind, the practice of the true art of healing Picture Quote #1

I am just beginning to understand what it is to paint. A painter should have two lives, one in which to learn, and one in which to practice his art Picture Quote #1

My art, what do you want to say about it? Do you think you can explain the merits of a picture to those who do not see them?... I can find the best and clearest words to explain my meaning, and I have spoken to the most intelligent people about art, and they have not understood; but among people who understand, words are not necessary, you say humph, he, ha and everything has been said Picture Quote #1

In art, one does not aim for simplicity; one achieves it unintentionally as one gets closer to the real meaning of things Picture Quote #1

How can you put out a meaningful drama when every fifteen minutes proceedings are interrupted by twelve dancing rabbits with toilet paper? No dramatic art form should be dictated and controlled by men whose training and instincts are cut of an entirely different cloth. The fact remains that these gentlemen sell consumer goods, not an art form Picture Quote #1

Disney is our contemporary landscape. The best art will reflect that and challenge you. Disney comforts you, whereas the best art shakes up your comfort level and perception Picture Quote #1

The art of negotiation is perhaps what most deeply distinguishes man from the animals, and it is this art and this will to negotiate that has brought man forward, elevated him beyond the animals Picture Quote #1

I envy the poet. He is encouraged toward drunkenness and wallows with nubile wenches while the painter must endure wretchedness and pain for his art Picture Quote #1

Reality is an aspect of property. It must be seized. And investigative journalism is the noble art of seizing reality back from the powerful Picture Quote #1

All good things come by grace, and grace comes by art, and art does not come easy Picture Quote #1

Someday it will dawn on man that woman does not read the wonderful books with which he has filled his libraries, and though she may well admire his marvelous works of art in museums she herself will rarely create, only copy Picture Quote #1

My art is different than yours; it consists not in defeating others, but in not being defeated Picture Quote #1

Improvisation is the art of becoming sound. It is the only art in which a human being can and must become the music he or she is making. Improvisation is the only musical art which predicated entirely on human trust and love Picture Quote #1

Abstract understanding doesn’t mean arbitrary sloshing and messing. Abstract art is controlled visual magic based on laws and methodology. Abstraction generally involves implication, suggestion and mystery rather that obvious description. Like a good poem, a good abstraction attacks your feelings before your understanding. Abstraction within realism adds zest and excitement to otherwise dull subject matter. Abstract understanding takes time and patience Picture Quote #1

People study martial arts for many reasons, sometimes all the wrong reasons. For example, I have had potential students come to my dojo with a belligerent and cocky attitude. When I ask why they want to study my art, their response has indicated to me that their goal is to learn to fight, which is the antithesis of the philosophy I hope to instill: I want them to know how to defend themselves if necessary, but to avoid fighting whenever possible because they will have nothing to prove by fighting Picture Quote #1

Obviously, where art has it over life is in the matter of editing. Life can be seen to suffer from a drastic lack of editing. It stops too quick, or else it goes on too long. Worse, its pacing is erratic. Some chapters are little more than a few sentences in length, while others stretch into volumes. Life, for all its raw talent, has little sense of structure. It creates amazing textures, but it can’t be counted on for snappy beginnings or good endings either. Indeed, in many cases no ending is provided at all Picture Quote #1

All the power of the occult healer lies in his conscious will, and all his art consists in producing faith in the patient Picture Quote #1

The art of concentrating strength at one point, forcing a breakthrough, rolling up and securing the flanks on either side, and then penetrating like lightning deep into his rear, before the enemy has time to react Picture Quote #1
