Text Quotes
The artist should paint not only what he sees before him, but also what he sees within him. If, however, he sees nothing within him, then he should also refrain from painting that which he sees before him. Otherwise, his pictures will be like those folding screens behind which one expects to find only the sick or the dead (The Artist Quotes)
The artist’s role is to raise the consciousness of the people. To make them understand life, the world and themselves more completely. That’s how I see it. Otherwise, I don’t know why you do it (The Artist Quotes)
I’m realistic about my age and realistic about the fact that there’s an awful lot less in front of me than there is behind me. I’ve always felt that music is an art form that deserves to live the life of the artist (The Artist Quotes)
I realized that the artists who managed to fight through this recession have a better shot at longevity than most. The recession was a test of your resolve and passion. I think as we come out of these rough times we will be more adept at survival and will have gained the skills necessary to make a long fruitful artistic career. There will still be those that fade away but we are more likely to grow and bend with the times and prosper (The Artist Quotes)
When I conjure these memories, they are of the present to me, because after all, the artist is a kind of enchanter in time (The Artist Quotes)
The world of sight is still limitless. It is the artist who limits vision to the cramped dimensions of his own ego (The Artist Quotes)
The artist is always engaged in writing a detailed history of the future because he is the only person aware of the nature of the present (The Artist Quotes)
It is the artist’s function not to copy but to synthesise: to eliminate from that gross confusion of actuality which is his raw material whatever is accidental, idle, irrelevant, and select for perpetuation that only which is appropriate and immortal (The Artist Quotes)
The artist in his teens who is happy is a charlatan. Life comes bursting in all around lis too suddenly, too crudely, too cruelly, for happiness (The Artist Quotes)
... that horrible moment of suspense when the artist shows one of his creations to strange eyes for the first time (The Artist Quotes)
Poetry criticism at its worst today is mean in spirit and spiteful in intent, as if determined to inflict the wound that will spur the artist to new heights if it does not cripple him or her (The Artist Quotes)
When you are on the management side, you still have to understand the artistic sensibility so that there is a dialogue with the creative side (The Artist Quotes)
I think the real problem is that nobody buys albums anymore, so you don’t get the depth of the artists that are out today. What you get is whatever they felt is politically correct to get on there and actually make some impact. I think that’s where you’re losing your depth. You’re only getting the very top of everything. It really bothers me (The Artist Quotes)
I have not become the artist I believe I am. I want to become a stadium act. I’m not done at all (The Artist Quotes)
It’s only recently that we’ve discovered that the artist’s inner self is somehow more important than the public world. I’m happier to create exterior pieces for the world rather than to express something I deeply feel or wish to say (The Artist Quotes)
Producers don’t really have any authority because you are paid by the artist, and if they choose to ignore you, they can. Your power only hangs by the tiniest thread. If you pull it too hard it will snap (The Artist Quotes)
History speaks to artists. It changes the artist’s thinking and is constantly reshaping it into different and unexpected images (The Artist Quotes)
The function of the artist in a disturbed society is to give awareness of the universe, to ask the right questions, and to elevate the mind (The Artist Quotes)
I think it’s really the job of the composer, the artist, the painter, the writer to present people with options. I’m just really reflecting the thoughts and actions around me (The Artist Quotes)
The biographies of great artists make it abundantly clear that the creative urge is often so imperious that it battens on their humanity and yokes everything to the service of the work, even at the cost of health and ordinary human happiness. The unborn work in the psyche of the artist is a force of nature that achieves its end either with tyrannical might or with the subtle cunning of nature herself, quite regardless of the personal fate of the man who is its vehicle (The Artist Quotes)
Before the people at large, and for that matter, the artists themselves, understand what photography really means, as I understand that term, it is essential for them to be taught the real meaning of art (The Artist Quotes)
I look at the artistic process as like experiencing the world, channeling it through your personality and sending it back out there. That’s the process (The Artist Quotes)
The conductor is the artistic leader and sometimes cultural arbiter of his or her community. It is their leadership that is looked to and should anything go wrong, they are the persons taking most of the heat (The Artist Quotes)
The artists in country music who stopped having hits are the ones who were led into something that wasn’t them (The Artist Quotes)
I’m just basically trying to make music that feels good. Right now in the music industry there’s a real lack of intimacy. You don’t really connect with the artist as much anymore, and you don’t really understand where they are. I’m basically doing music that illustrates who I am and where I am in my life (The Artist Quotes)
The artist deals with what cannot be said in words. The novelist says in words what cannot be said in words (The Artist Quotes)
For me, if the music is good, whether the artist is famous or unknown, I love being part of the music and contributing what I can to the bass end (The Artist Quotes)
The artist never really has any control over the impact of his work. If he starts thinking about the impact of his work, then he becomes a lesser artist (The Artist Quotes)
Our advanced art approaches a fragile but marvelous life, one that maintains itself by a mere thread, melting into an elusive, changeable configuration, the surroundings, the artist, his work and everyone who comes to it (The Artist Quotes)
I want to go and see things as a fan again. I am a fan, but I can’t remember what it feels like to be a fan anymore. Because I’ve become an artist. I’ve become the artist (The Artist Quotes)
