Famous quotes containing the word artists:

    We artists are indestructible; even in a prison, or in a concentration camp, I would be almighty in my own world of art, even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell.
    Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)

    Women and egoistic artists entertain a feeling towards science that is something composed of envy and sentimentality.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
