Artists
Sayings;
At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon.
And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since. (Salvador Dali)
Have no fear of perfection, you'll
never reach it. (Salvador Dali)
Every good painter paints
what he is. (Jackson Pollock)
People want to find a "meaning" in
everything and everyone. That's
the disease of our age, an age that is anything but practical but believes
itself to be more practical than any other age. (Pablo Picasso)
Dreams and
Allusions;
What lies behind us and what
lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
To
the world you might be one person, but to one person you might be the world. (Unknown)
Nothing is as real as a dream.
The world can change around you, but your dream will not. Responsibilities need
not erase it. Duties need not obscure it. Because the dream is within you, no
one can take it away. (Unknown)
Illusions commend themselves to
us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must
therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of
reality against which they are dashed to pieces.
(Sigmund Freud)
There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face
reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.
(Douglas Everett)
Friends;
Associate
yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis
better to be alone than in bad company.
(George Washington (1732 - 1799) US Statesman.)
"Two
are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if
they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he
falleth; for he hath not another to help him up."
- Bible: Ecclesiastes
Friendship
is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather is
one of those things that give value to survival."
- C. S. Lewis
Make
new friends but keep the old, some are silver and others are Gold
“We
are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is
a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.”-
Maugham
"Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and
impossible to forget." -G. Randolf
"True friends are the people that are there for you
unconditionally. They are the people that never question you and support
you no matter what the circumstances are. They are the people worth
living for." -unknown
"Never explain yourself. Your friends don’t need it and your
enemies won’t believe it." -Belgicia Howell
“A real friend is someone who you can sit in complete silence with and
still walk away feeling like you just had the best conversation of your
life.”
“True friendship is when two friends can walk in opposite directions,
yet remain side by side.”
“Side by side or miles apart, dear friends are always close to the
heart.”
"We will be friends until forever, just you wait see." - Pooh
Bear
"My friend, if I could give you one thing, I would wish for you the
ability to see yourself as others see you. Then you would realize what a
truly special person you are."
**"A friend is someone who can see the truth and pain in you even
when you are fooling everyone else."—Unknown
**"A friend is one who knows all about you and likes you
anyway." --Christi Mary Warner
"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks
out." --Walter Winchell
"A true friend is someone who is there for you when they would
rather be someplace else." --Len Wein
"Friends are like television. Some are like PBS and always asking
for money. Others are like the news, with sad tales to tell everyday,
some are like that one station with the
foreing language; you don't
understand a word of it but you listen
and watch anyway. And then there
are the ones like the commercials, always changes, ever-so-annoying and
only seem to be
there when you are bored. But every once and a while you
meet someone who's like a really good movie of the week or that
one tv
show you hardly ever get to see anymore because
you're so
busy. My
point
is hold on to the friends you care about and
since we
don't
have a remote control to mute someone or just change the
channel, pick your
friends carefully."

Artistic
thoughts;
Abraham Maslow: Art Quotes
A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to
be ultimately at peace with himself. What one can be, one must be.
Edmond and Jules De
Goncourt: Art Quotes
A painting in a museum probably hears more foolish remarks than anything else in
the world.
James McNeill Whistler:
Art Quotes
An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.
Jean-Luc Godard:
Art Quotes
Art attracts us only
by what
it reveals of our most secret self.
Jean Arp: Art Quotes
Art is a fruit that grows
in man, like a fruit on a
plant, or a child in its mother's womb.
Ayn Rand: Art Quotes
Art is a selective re-creation
of reality according to
an artist's metaphysical value-judgments.
