I believe this myself & a few other peo­ple say they believe this is true too. But I’m not cer­tain of whether it’s true. (Gus­tav Klimt) Art is every­where you look for it, hail the twin­kling stars for they are God’s care­less splat­ters. (El Greco) I decided to accept for true, my own think­ing. (Geor­gia O’Keeffe) God is a con­cept by which we mea­sure our pain. (John Lennon) True relax­ation, which would do me the world of good, does not exist for me.

(Mark Rothko) The only real influ­ence I’ve ever had…was myself. (Edward Hopper) The rela­tion­ship between the pub­lic and the artist is com­plex and dif­fi­cult to explain. There is a fine line between using this crit­i­cal energy cre­atively and pan­der­ing to it. (Andy Goldsworthy) You are born an artist or you are not. And you stay an artist, dear, even if your voice is less of a fire­works. The artist is always there. (Maria Callas) Art is a col­lab­o­ra­tion between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the bet­ter. (Andre Gide) I would chal­lenge you to a bat­tle of wits, but I see you are unarmed.

(John Lennon) You can’t have a good bull­fight with­out a good bull. (Julian Schnabel) As music is the poetry of sound, so is paint­ing the poetry of sight.
