artists

«It's my guess that those cutting-edge artists who attack tradition secretly believe tradition will survive to enshrine them as the wild and crazy geniuses who destroyed it»
«I firmly believe that all human beings have access to extraordinary energies and powers. Judging from accounts of mystical experience, heightened creativity, or exceptional performance by athletes and artists, we harbor a greater life than we know. There we go beyond those limited and limiting patterns of body, emotions, volition, and understanding that have been keeping us in dry-dock. Instead we become available to our capacity for a larger life in body, mind, and spirit. In this state we know great torrents of delight.»
«I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.»
«Great artists are people who find the way to be themselves in their art. Any sort of pretension induces mediocrity in art and life alike.»
«I've got a peculiar weakness for criminals and artists-neither takes life as it is. Any tragic story has to be in conflict with things as they are.»
«Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.»
Author: Pablo Picasso (Artist, Painter) | About: Art | Keywords: artists, copy, copying, steal
«It is only too true that a lot of artists are mentally ill- it's a life which, to put it mildly, makes one an outsider. I'm all right when I completely immerse myself in work, but I'll always remain half crazy.»
«I'm kind of hooked to the game of art and literature; my heroes are artists and writers.»
«Bad artists always admire each others work.»
Author: Oscar Wilde (Critic, Dramatist, Novelist, Poet) | About: Art | Keywords: admire, always, artists, bad, each, others, work
«Bad artists always admire each other's work. They call it being large-minded and free from prejudice. But a truly great artist cannot conceive of life being shown, or beauty fashioned, under any conditions other than those he has selected.»
