PABLO PICASSO
(1881-1973)
Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.

Computers are useless.  They only give you answers.

Every child is an artist.  The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.

Everything you can imagine is real.

Give me a museum, and I'll fill it.

I am always doing things I can't do, that's how I get to do them.

I'd like to live as a poor man with lots of money.

I have always believed and still believe that artists who live and work with spiritual values cannot and should not remain indifferent to a conflict in which the highest values of humanity and civilization are at stake.

It takes a long time to become young.

My mother said to me, "If you are a soldier, you will become a general.  If you are a monk, you will become the Pope."  Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.

Reality is more than the thing itself.  I always look for its super reality.  Reality lies in how you see things.

There is no abstract art.  You must always start with something.

What is a face, really?  Its own photo?  Its make-up?  Or is it a face as painted by such or such painter?  That which is in front?  Inside?  Behind?  And the rest?  Doesn't everyone look at himself in his own particular way?  Deformations simply do not exist.

Youth has no age.
