The first step – especially for young people with energy and drive and talent, but not money – the first step to controlling your world is to control your culture. To model and demonstrate the kind of world you demand to live in. To write the books. Make the music. Shoot the films. Paint the art. – Chuck Palahniuk
Film as dream, film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls. – Ingmar Bergman
A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed. – Ansel Adams
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up. – Pablo Picasso
You can’t, if you can’t feel it, if it never
Rises from the soul, and sways
The heart of every single hearer,
With deepest power, in simple ways.
You’ll sit forever, gluing things together,
Cooking up a stew from other’s scraps,
Blowing on a miserable fire,
Made from your heap of dying ash.
Let apes and children praise your art,
If their admiration’s to your taste,
But you’ll never speak from heart to heart,
Unless it rises up from your heart’s space. – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
In the haunted house of life, art is the only stair that doesn’t creak. – Tom Robbins
If it weren’t for greed, intolerance, hate, passion and murder, you would have no works of art, no great buildings, no medical science, no Mozart, no Van Gough, no Muppets and no Louis Armstrong. – Jasper Fforde
…and then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that is not enough, what is enough? – Vincent van Gogh
The business of art lies just in this, — to make that understood and felt which, in the form of an argument, might be incomprehensible and inaccessible. – Leo Tolstoy
Whatever the imagination seizes as Beauty must be truth -whether it existed before or not – John Keats
The mystery was gone but the amazement was just starting. – Andy Warhol
