Point Quotes

There comes a point when the paint doesn’t feel like paint. I don’t know why. Some mysterious thing happens. I think you have all experienced it... What counts is that the paint should really disappear, otherwise it’s craft Picture Quote #1

I was very happy, I think part of the point of this creativity is to do something that helps you in a cathartic sense Picture Quote #1

A necessary process for the artist is one which begins with a point of view, a reaction to the environment, to people, to whatever it is one is concerned with Picture Quote #1

I was disappointed over my dismissal, given that it was at a crucial stage of the game and I had worked very hard to get to that point, Picture Quote #1

I don’t think there’s anything really wrong with influence because I think that one can use another man’s art as material either literally or just implying that they’re doing that, without it representing a lack of a point of view Picture Quote #1

The whole point of justice consists precisely in our providing for others through humanity what we provide for our own family through affection Picture Quote #1

Librarians open up the world. Knowledge is useless if you don’t even know where to begin to look. How much more can you discover when someone can point you in the right direction, when someone can maybe even give you a treasure map, to places you may not have even thought you were allowed to go? This is what librarians do Picture Quote #1

Again and again one can listen: this is my opinion, I think this or that... As if it matters, what one or the other thinks! The point is much more to what the truth is! Picture Quote #1

I wish I could convey the perfection of a seal slipping into water or a spider monkey swinging from point to point or a lion merely turning its head. But language founders in such seas. Better to picture it in your head if you want to feel it Picture Quote #1

When I was in art school, I thought art was something I would learn how to do, and then I would just do it. At a certain point I realized that it wasn’t going to work like that. Basically, I would have to start over every day and figure out what art was going to be Picture Quote #1

I begin my pictures under the effect of a shock which I feel and which makes me escape from reality... I need a point of departure, even if it’s only a speck of dust or a flash of light Picture Quote #1

I lost quite a bit of skin on the left side of my body and sustained some deep cuts in my hand and around my knee, but the doctors were able to stitch it all back together. Luckily I didn’t hurt my shoulder but I’m now at the point where the only thing on my body which isn’t hurting is my bad shoulder Picture Quote #1

We’ve reached the point where the demand for rules is about to replace the demand for chaos Picture Quote #1

Our whole evolution up to this point shows that human groups spontaneously evolve patterns of behavior, as well as patterns of training people for that behavior, which tend on balance to lead people to create rather than destroy. Humans are, on net balance, builders rather than destroyers Picture Quote #1

And yet, winning is like a welcome drink going down your throat, like a beautiful embrace. It is brilliant while it lasts but it isn’t forever. The high eventually melts away and the journey of life begins afresh. The truly remarkable among us visit these highs periodically; winning then becomes a journey, a graph where each point is crucial but is in reality merely part of a larger curve Picture Quote #1

Whether something is called art is beside the point. What counts is what happens when you ask it to actually be art Picture Quote #1

Naturalistic art, as we know it, is an art which imitates the appearance of things, not as they are in reality, but as they appear at one moment from the point of view of a single spectator. This is the effect of perspective. Nothing of this sort existed in prehistory Picture Quote #1

The grandest and simplest things contain worlds within worlds. Seeing them is a matter of the right point of view, and your painter’s eye is the special portal to such sights Picture Quote #1

I think of myself as a beginner. Sometimes that’s the whole joy. If you could just do it, there’d be no point in doing it Picture Quote #1

If you stare at an object, as you do when you paint, there is no point at which you stop learning things from it Picture Quote #1

I’m suffering very much, but am I suffering very well? That’s the point! Picture Quote #1

Never lose sight of this maxim, that you should establish your cantonments at the most distant and best protected point from the enemy, especially where a surprise is possible. By this means you will have time to unite all your forces before he can attack you Picture Quote #1

Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it Picture Quote #1

At what point does a man turn into a monster? I don’t believe that it’s when he does horrible things, but when he accepts that he’s able to do them, and that he does them well Picture Quote #1

There is a point, of course, where a man must take the isolated peak and break with all his associates for clear principle; but until that time comes he must work, if he would be of use, with men as they are. As long as the good in them overbalances the evil, let him work with them for the best that can be obtained Picture Quote #1

I kept quiet, but the knowledge gathered like a storm. I could see the future: My father wasn’t coming back. And this one fact seemed to point to other facts and others still: Love frays and humans fail, time passes, eras end Picture Quote #1

Conservation is a cause that has no end. There is no point at which we will say our work is finished Picture Quote #1

What seems today inconceivable will appear one day, from a higher stand point, quite simple and harmonious Picture Quote #1

To experience the satisfaction and enjoyment of success in life, a definitive goal is essential. Many people fail at this vital point. The goal must be definite and specific, not in any sense vague or fuzzy. And to prove attainable, its image needs to be sharpened and resharpened continually, so that it stands out vividly in your thoughts. You must know, at all times, precisely and for certain what it is you want to accomplish and achieve. Strong and organized purposefulness toward a definite objective will focus your powers into a strong motivation in attainment of your goal Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to have a bad influence on anybody, but there’s no point in my giving up cigarettes now. I won’t die young Picture Quote #1
