Art Quotes
If I didn't choose art, I would have become an astronomer.
Peter Max
Art led the way for me to recover. He got out of prison before me and started traveling all over the world before I did. He showed me by example that it could be done, and I'll always love him for that.
Frank Morgan
The true, prescriptive artist strives after artistic truth; the lawless artist, following blind instinct, after an appearance of naturalness. The one leads to the highest peaks of art, the other to its lowest depths.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If you took away all pain, if everyone lived forever, everything would be bland, flat and boring; there would be no reason for art, music, newspapers, love because we would all be in a mono state of happiness.
Matt Haig
I think it would be very difficult to maintain one kind of art or whatever for your whole life. I think it's unrealistic.
Sia
LSD
To sing a song is like whispering to a child's ear. It is an art heavily relying on improvisation.
Andrea Bocelli
And from the point of view of art there are no concrete or abstract forms, but only forms which are more or less convincing lies. That those lies are necessary to our mental selves is beyond any doubt, as it is through them that we form our aesthetic point of view of life. (Paris 1923)
Pablo Picasso

Marc Benioff
I believe in the power of great art to transcend geographical boundaries, political differences and even the restrictions of time.
Armand Hammer
People that went to art house theatre have more options, I used to go, but now think any movie can be delivered in a red envelope three months after it's released so why not watch it on my flat screen in the comfort of home.
Edward Burns
When money and hype recede from the art world, one thing I won't miss will be what curator Francesco Bonami calls the 'Eventocracy.' All this flashy 'art-fair art' and those highly produced space-eating spectacles and installations wow you for a minute until you move on to the next adrenaline event.
