Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist.

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.

The artist who aims at perfection in everything achieves it in nothing.

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.

True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist.

The highest art is always the most religious, and the greatest artist is always a devout person.
