Drawing Quotes
-
I want to show how much fun you can have drawing... parents and children can draw together as a wonderful shared activity.
Chris Riddell
-
Drawing is but a means to an end. One imagines that drawing can be beautiful-it is not the lines which are beautiful, but what they signify, the sentiments which they translate. In reality, there is no such thing as beauty in drawing, or color beauty lies alone in revelation of truth.
Auguste Rodin
-
The great gift of conversation lies less in displaying it ourselves than in drawing it out of others. He who leaves your company pleased with himself and his own cleverness is perfectly well pleased with you.
Jean de la Bruyere

It always amazes me that Japanese comics have, like, 200 pages. How do they do that? They're fat books; it's a whole different kind of comic that's very close to their films. So I'm drawing from that history and bringing it here - bringing it to Katana.
Ann Nocenti
-
A drawing is essentially a private work, related only to the artist's own needs; a 'finished' statue or canvas is essentially a public, presented work - related far more directly to the demands of communication.
John Berger
-
The only thing in life that really gives me any peace is just being lost in the process of creating something, whether it's the film or painting and drawing, which has been a big part of my life, for a long time.
Ellar Coltrane
-
It is too evident that if the drawing is bad, the color false, the deepest emotion must fail to express itself.
Auguste Rodin
-
I've always called myself a journalist who happens to draw. If I wasn't drawing cartoons, I'd be writing stories.
David Horsey
-
Even if you're drawing a cartoon and exaggerating, you want to capture something true about the person.
David Horsey

Scilurus on his death-bed, being about to leave four-score sons surviving, offered a bundle of darts to each of them, and bade them break them. When all refused, drawing out one by one, he easily broke them,-thus teaching them that if they held together, they would continue strong; but if they fell out and were divided, they would become weak.
Plutarch
