The path to youth takes a lifetime.

Freedom Quotes by Pablo Picasso
…art is something subversive. It’s something that should not be free. Art and liberty, like the fire of Prometheus, are things that one must steal, to be used against the established order.
Pablo Picasso
…the right to free expression is something one seizes, not something one is given…. if it does exist, it exists to be used against the established order…. There is absolute opposition between the artist and the state.
Pablo Picasso
So there’s only one tactic for the state: kill the seers.
Pablo Picasso
The revolutionary artist does not only focus on the negative aspects of capitalist lives, but also creates visions of a revolutionary future.

Pablo Picasso
Painting isn’t made for the decoration of apartments; it is a weapon to be used offensively and defensively against the enemy.

Pablo Picasso’s Happiness and Life Quotes
Everything exists in limited quantity – especially happiness.
Pablo Picasso
I’m always doing things I can’t do. That’s how I get to do them.
Pablo Picasso
Never permit a dichotomy to rule your life, a dichotomy in which you hate what you do so you can have pleasure in your spare time. Look for a situation in which your work will give you as much happiness as your spare time.
Pablo Picasso
Are we to paint what’s on the face, what’s inside the face, or what’s behind it?
Pablo Picasso
I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.
Pablo Picasso
Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.
Pablo Picasso
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Pablo Picasso
Sculpture is the art of the intelligence.
Pablo Picasso
The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.
Pablo Picasso
There’s nothing more difficult than a line.
Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso Quotes about Soul
Art is the best possible introduction to the culture of the world. I love it for the buried hopes, the garnered memories, the tender feelings it can summon at a touch. It washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Pablo Picasso
Art sweeps the everyday dust from your soul.
Pablo Picasso
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Pablo Picasso
The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.
Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso Quotes about Time
It takes a long time to become young.
Pablo Picasso
What might be taken for a precocious genius is the genius of childhood. When the child grows up, it disappears without a trace. It may happen that this boy will become a real painter some day, or even a great painter. But then he will have to begin everything again, from zero.
Pablo Picasso
Youth has no age.
Pablo Picasso
Understanding Quotes by Pablo Picasso
Is there anything more dangerous than sympathetic understanding?
Pablo Picasso
Through education comes understanding. Through understanding comes true appreciation. All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
Pablo Picasso
What a trade! Poor painters! They always wish to be understood, and they are analysed instead.
Pablo Picasso
Why do you try to understand art? Do you try to understand the song of a bird?
Pablo Picasso
Famous Quotes of Pablo Picasso
“Picasso” is of Italian origin, as you know. And the name a person bears or adopts has its importance.
Pablo Picasso
Have you noticed that bones are always modeled and not carved, that you always have the impression they come from a mold, that they were first modeled in clay? Any bone you look at, you always find fingerprints on it.
Pablo Picasso
I hate it when people pilfer my things.
Pablo Picasso
I have a real passion for bones. I have many others in Boisgeloup: skeletons of birds, dog’s and sheep’s heads. I even have a rhinoceros skull.
Pablo Picasso
I understand how you could see something in the root of a tree, a crack in the wall, in an eroded stone or pebble. But marble? It comes off in blocks and doesn’t evoke any image. It does not inspire.
Pablo Picasso
If I were to sign it now, I’d be committing forgery. I’d be putting my 1943 signature on a canvas painted in 1922.
Pablo Picasso
It is important to remember that great things have no fear of time. We’ve got to let go of the idea that what we want to manifest has to be done on our time schedule.
Pablo Picasso
It seems strange to me that someone thought of making marble statues.
Pablo Picasso
It’s insane how many Roman coins are being found! It’s as if all Romans had holes in their pockets. They sowed coins wherever they went. Even in the fields. Maybe to grow money . . .
Pablo Picasso
Manifesting takes place from Spirit. It doesn’t take place from form, from the physical world. You’ve got to know that what you want to manifest will occur.
Pablo Picasso
People are always asking me to sign my old canvases. It’s ridiculous!
Pablo Picasso
Races and religions may have changed, but the marketplace, the living quarters, pilgrimage sites, places of worship, have remained the same. Venus is replaced by the Virgin, but the same life goes on.
Pablo Picasso
The fingerprints of the god who amused himself fashioning them – I can see them on any bone whatsoever.
Pablo Picasso
What is conserved in the ground? Stone, bronze, ivory, bone, sometimes pottery. Never wood objects, no fabric or skins. That completely skews our notions about primitive man.
Pablo Picasso
What other movement determines the S line? Its aesthetic efficacity has long been noted by artists.
Pablo Picasso
When I enter the studio, I leave my body at the door the way the Moslems leave their shoes when they enter the mosque, and I only allow my spirit to go in there and paint.
