Text Quotes
It’s very difficult for me to dislike an artist. No matter what he’s creating, the fact that he’s experiencing the joy of creation makes me feel like we’re in a brotherhood of some kind... We’re in it together  (Artist Quotes) To me, the job of the artist is to provide a useful and intelligent vocabulary for the world to be able to articulate feelings they experience everyday, and otherwise wouldn't have the means to express in a meaningful and useful way  (Artist Quotes) I hope what I do has an art to it, and as an artist you have to try new things and keep yourself entertained  (Artist Quotes) Being an artist is dragging your innermost feelings out, giving a piece of yourself, no matter in which art form, in which medium  (Artist Quotes) I've always seen it as the role of an artist to drag his inside out, give the audience all you've got. Writers, actors, singers, all good artists do the same. It isn't supposed to be easy  (Artist Quotes) It is the artist who realizes that there is a supreme force above him and works gladly away as a small apprentice under God's heaven  (Artist Quotes) It is only the unimaginative who ever invents. The true artist is known by the use he makes of what he annexes  (Artist Quotes) For an artist to marry his model is as fatal as for a gourmet to marry his cook: The one gets no sittings, and the other gets no dinners  (Artist Quotes) The poet is the supreme artist, for he is the master of colour and of form, and the real musician besides, and is lord over all life and all arts  (Artist Quotes) No artist has ethical sympathies. An ethical sympathy in an artist is an unpardonable mannerism of style  (Artist Quotes) I am a leader. Leaders always get heat. They're always going against the grain. Jimi Hendrix got heat; Bob Marley got heat; Miles Davis got heat. Every great artist got heat. Heat means you're doing something right  (Artist Quotes) Never trust the artist. Trust the tale. The proper function of the critic is to save the tale from the artist who created it  (Artist Quotes) The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters - not to talk in armies and nations and numbers - but to track it home  (Artist Quotes) An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along  (Artist Quotes) Memory is a great artist. For every man and for every woman it makes the recollection of his or her life a work of art and an unfaithful record  (Artist Quotes) Only mediocrities progress. An artist revolves in a cycle of masterpieces, the first of which is no less perfect than the last  (Artist Quotes) His work was that curious mixture of bad painting and good intentions that always entitles a man to be called a representative British artist  (Artist Quotes) Art is not to be taught in Academies. It is what one looks at, not what one listens to, that makes the artist. The real schools should be the streets  (Artist Quotes) When I start to write, words have become physical presence. It was to see if I could bring that private world to life that found it's first expression through reading. I really dislike the romantic notion of the artist  (Artist Quotes) Today the function of the artist is to bring imagination to science and science to imagination, where they meet, in the myth  (Artist Quotes) Although most of us know Vincent van Gogh in Arles and Paul Gauguin in Tahiti as if they were neighbors - somewhat disreputable but endlessly fascinating - none of us can name two French generals or department store owners of that period. I take enormous pride in considering myself an artist, one of the necessaries  (Artist Quotes) We live in capitalism, and capitalism is defined by the production line, and the production line is defined by specificity. If you see yourself as an artist, which I do, then you can't be limited by that. You can't let somebody tell you, 'Well, you can only draw this kind of picture or write that kind of book  (Artist Quotes) The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has  (Artist Quotes) The seeing of things as they really are-the seeing of a proportion veiled from other eyes (together with the power of expression), is what makes a man an artist. What makes him a great artist is a high fervour of spirit, which produces a superlative, instead of a comparative, clarity of vision  (Artist Quotes) The study of beauty is a duel in which the artist cries with terror before being defeated  (Artist Quotes) It's so different now coming out as a new artist today than it was when I came out almost ten years ago. Now, it's all about singles, it's really quick, it's online. I came out when people sold records and they still do today but - I don't know what the key is  (Artist Quotes) Calling a young artist 'great' these days can give one the heebie jeebies: The word has been denatured in the past decade  (Artist Quotes) Elizabeth Peyton, the artist known for tiny, dazzling portraits of radiant youth, is now painting tiny, dazzling portraits of radiant middle age  (Artist Quotes) These days, newish art can be priced between $10,000 and $25,000. When I tell artists that a new painting by a newish artist should go for around $1,200, they look at me like I'm a flesh eating virus  (Artist Quotes) What is it they want from the man that they didn't get from the work? What do they expect? What is there left when he's done with his work, what's any artist but the dregs of his work, the human shambles that follows it around?  (Artist Quotes)
