Text Quotes
In 2008 all the stars aligned perfectly for Obamas 6-point victory over John McCain. He was an inexperienced, untested neophyte, and successfully convinced enough voters to paint their own version of what hope-and-change was all about on the blank canvas he provided  (Canvas Quotes) People speak of the fear of the blank canvas as though it is a temporary hesitation, a trembling moment of self-doubt. For me it was more like being abducted from my bed by a clown, thrust into a circus arena with a wicker chair, and told to tame a pissed-off lion in front of an expectant crowd  (Canvas Quotes) Life is a big ol’ canvas. And you have every combination of colors to paint with  (Canvas Quotes) As a kid, I used to be equal parts drawn to and horrified of the circus. They would have these beautiful canvas posters for Lobster Boy, bearded women, and this and that  (Canvas Quotes) The bigger the canvas, the better I do. I’m not so good at understated, kitchen-sink kinds of parts  (Canvas Quotes) That experience of touching down in a totally foreign place is like having a blank canvas: You begin with nothing, but stroke by stroke you build a life. This process requires everything great art requires-risk-tasking, hope, a great deal of imagination, all the qualities that are the building blocks of art. You must be able to dream something nearly impossible and toil to bring it into existence  (Canvas Quotes) I’d paint long strips of canvas and abandon them on the beach, or put bread out in geometric patterns for the pigeons downtown. I wanted people to find something nice and intriguing to puzzle over. Then I’d go back to see if the things were still there, or if anyone would notice  (Canvas Quotes) I started when I was 15 years old. And at that time, I was not thinking about changing the world, I was doing graffiti - writing my name everywhere, using the city as a canvas. I was going in the tunnels of Paris, on the rooftops with my friends. Each trip was an excursion, was an adventure.  (Canvas Quotes) Because advertising and marketing is an art, the solution to each new problem or challenge should begin with a blank canvas and an open mind, not with the nervous borrowings of other people’s mediocrities. That’s precisely what ‘trends’ are - a search for something ‘safe’ - and why a reliance on them leads to oblivion.  (Canvas Quotes) Fury’ whetted my appetite for a bigger canvas and this idea of world creation. You can do amazing things as a filmmaker if you have the proper tools, and those are time and money.  (Canvas Quotes) An empty canvas is a living wonder Â- far lovelier than certain pictures  (Canvas Quotes) A painter’s got a canvas. The writer’s got reams of empty paper. A musician has silence.  (Canvas Quotes) For sheer excitement you can keep movie premieres and roller-coasters . An empty white canvas waiting to be filled. That’s the thing.  (Canvas Quotes) Some girls look beautiful with no makeup on at all. I call them lazy. Now go throw some war paint on you bleak empty canvas you.  (Canvas Quotes) You wind up creating from silence, like painting a picture on a blank canvas that could bring tears to somebody’s eyes. As songwriters, our blank canvas is silence. Then we write a song from an idea that can change somebody’s life. Songwriting is the closest thing to magic that we could ever experience. That’s why I love songwriting.  (Canvas Quotes) The canvas is the door to another dimension. The paintbrush is the key.  (Canvas Quotes) We’re trying to do what Miles Davis would have wanted us to do, which is approach it as artists with his life as the canvas.  (Canvas Quotes) The world is my canvas, and my ponytail is my paintbrush. Helen Keller probably had a ponytail too, though my art has more vision. Barely.  (Canvas Quotes) Dancers are a work of art - they are the canvas on which their work is painted  (Canvas Quotes) I want to do just, like, regular art. Whatever is made today on canvas goes up against all of art history. It’s the most radical thing.  (Canvas Quotes) Deals are my art form. Other people paint beautifully on canvas or write wonderful poetry. I like making deals, preferably big deals. That’s how I get my kicks.  (Canvas Quotes) By itself, tofu is like wet foam rubber, but you’d no more eat it by itself and expect fine dining than you would stare at a blank canvas and expect to see fine art.  (Canvas Quotes) The wonderful thing about a book is that you have a canvas that is 300 pages wide, and it’s all free space. You can make a piece of art as big as you want and whatever shape you want.  (Canvas Quotes) I go to make art as who I am as a person. The fact that I am a woman comes into play maybe in the kinds of things I’m interested in or in the way I structure a canvas.  (Canvas Quotes) No, I never had any dreams. The process of art is a dream in itself. The artist just doesn’t... you work out something. It’s yours. You don’t have to go to sleep to do that. You do that on the canvas.  (Canvas Quotes) Art has been good for my soul. And it’s been good for my brain. I think I’m a better painter now than I was a musician growing up. You struggle to see things and translate an image through your hands to a canvas.  (Canvas Quotes) My philosophy is that I’m an artist. I perform an art not with a paint brush or a camera. I perform with bodily movement. Instead of exhibiting my art in a museum or a book or on canvas, I exhibit my art in front of the multitudes.  (Canvas Quotes) No better way is there to learn to love Nature than to understand Art. It dignifies every flower of the field. And, the boy who sees the thing of beauty which a bird on the wing becomes when transferred to wood or canvas will probably not throw the customary stone.  (Canvas Quotes) As long as you’re true to you, you believe it and you make others believe it, then what you’re doing is just art. If you give everybody a blank canvas and some paint, not everybody’s picture is going to be exactly the same, but it’s still art. I just do what I do.  (Canvas Quotes) The word ‘art’ interests me very much. If it comes from Sanskrit, as I’ve heard, it signifies ‘making.’ Now everyone makes something, and those who make things on a canvas with a frame, they’re called artists. Formerly, they were called craftsmen, a term I prefer. We’re all craftsmen, in civilian or military or artistic life.  (Canvas Quotes)
