I'm pretty fond of most of Picasso's work. But I think what I love most are some of his quotes, which can be pretty amusing at times...
God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant, and the cat. He has no real style. He just keeps on trying other things.
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.
It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.
My mother said to me, "If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope." Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.
Never permit a dichotomy to rule your life, a dichotomy in which you hate what you do so you can have pleasure in your spare time. Look for a situation in which your work will give you as much happiness as your spare time.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into the sun.
Success is dangerous. One begins to copy oneself, and to copy oneself is more dangerous than to copy others. It leads to sterility.
The people who make art their business are mostly imposters.
The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.
The world today doesn't make sense, so why should I paint pictures that do?
Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.
Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.
