Museums Quotes

I like to read, walk, cook, and travel to cities. We live in the country, so we miss museums and the bustle of city life Picture Quote #1

Like surgeons trying to save a life, the conservators and preservers at New York City museums dedicate themselves to ensuring the longevity of works of art for public view Picture Quote #1

There was a belief after World War I that painting could be an act of civil revolt. I want this exhibition, ‘New Museum,’ to be an act of civil disobedience. It’s not so much about the New Museum on the Bowery, but the idea of challenging museums as projections of cultural authority. It’s painting as insurgency Picture Quote #1

Wear your clothes with abandon, I say; don’t keep them pristine as if for museums: They are meant to wear out. Then you get to buy new ones Picture Quote #1

I write in coffee shops, libraries, parks, museums. I get antsy and then get on my bike and go someplace else, letting the ideas spin around in my head as I dodge taxis Picture Quote #1

I have a passion for modern and contemporary art. I spend a lot of time in museums; I particularly like the Guggenheim, MoMA in New York or LACMA and the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, for example. I cannot wait for the Louis Vuitton Foundation to open Picture Quote #1

In China, we don’t have any contemporary art museums. Until a few years ago, we didn’t even have a gallery Picture Quote #1

A country that has few museums is both materially poor and spiritually poor...Museums, like theaters and libraries, are a means to freedom Picture Quote #1

I enjoy living life and I enjoy going to different restaurants and eating my way through a country and going to different museums and learning about different cultures Picture Quote #1

I go to a lot of museums, I read a ton of poetry - anything that’s a creative expression of oneself, I find really inspiring Picture Quote #1

Museums are for dead artists. I’d never show my work in the Tate. You’d never get me in that place Picture Quote #1

The deep sea is the largest museum on earth, it contains more history than all the museums on land combined, and yet we’re only now penetrating it Picture Quote #1

Museums provide places of relaxation and inspiration. And most importantly, they are a place of authenticity. We live in a world of reproductions - the objects in museums are real. It’s a way to get away from the overload of digital technology Picture Quote #1

Technology is in fact one of the most exciting things that’s happened to museums today - but one has to be careful about where one uses it. For instance, the Internet provides an incredible opportunity. It is a way for us to reach audiences around the world and further our educational mission Picture Quote #1

The Beautiful is everywhere; perhaps more in the arrangement of your saucepans on the white walls of your kitchen than in your eighteenth-century living room or in the official museums Picture Quote #1

I hitchhiked to Miami in 1953, and there were oranges laying on the road, black shantytowns, and marinas with nice boats. The museums were virtually empty Picture Quote #1

I love to play. I love, opera, hiking and museums. The one thing I don’t do is sit. I have a tremendous amount of energy Picture Quote #1

It’s usually a jolly good trick to pick up a local tour guide. They can tell you all the anecdotes that make a place interesting. I’m one for rushing off to museums at the crack of dawn, eating fabulous things on terraces for lunch, and enjoying long dinners on balmy evenings Picture Quote #1

We are not on this earth to just stand still and look pretty. The museums already have enough statues Picture Quote #1

Since babyhood, I’ve always evolved from one thing to another. My mother gave me ballet lessons at 6 as part of her enthusiasm for the arts and for life. We went to museums, to the theater. While her own talent was untapped, she worked for church causes Picture Quote #1

Yes, my works... are enshrined in museums, but I don’t care if the pieces fall apart in 20 years Picture Quote #1

Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums, Picture Quote #1

Museums that aren’t perfect are the ones that I love. Museums that aren’t overdesigned. I always like to visit the strange, odd museums. In New York, the Frick is absolutely my favorite, favorite place because I like to think that it was someone’s home not that long ago Picture Quote #1

My favorite museums are things like the Frick Museum in New York and the Huntington Hartford in Pasadena where it’s someone’s home that you walk through Picture Quote #1

I applied for funding to embark on an overseas field trip in Iceland, and spent six weeks there happily holed up in the national archives, museums and libraries, sifting through ministerial and parish records, censuses, maps, microfilm, logs, and local histories Picture Quote #1

I would never have expected anything that I did would ever appear in first-rate museums around the world. That was just a choice that I made, very early on. I was interested mainly in the entertainment arts. I wasn’t as interested in being a fine artists Picture Quote #1

Become slower in your journey through life. Practice yoga and meditation if you suffer from ‘hurry sickness.’ Become more introspective by visiting quiet places such as churches, museums, mountains and lakes. Give yourself permission to read at least one novel a month for pleasure Picture Quote #1

I can’t go any place without going to museums. It’s very important for me Picture Quote #1

As for pictures and museums, that don’t trouble me. The worst of going abroad is that you’ve always got to look at things of that sort. To have to do it at home would be beyond a joke Picture Quote #1

If you’re middle aged... where’re you going to go to meet someone? You’re not going to go to a bar, you’re not going to go to a night club; and there are the museums Picture Quote #1
