Art is the best possible introduction to the culture of the world. I love it for the buried hopes, the garnered memories, the tender feelings it can summon at a touch. It washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

A painter is a man who paints what he sells; an artist, on the other hand, is a man who sells what he paints.

Painting is a jeu d'esprit.

"Picasso" is of Italian origin, as you know. And the name a person bears or adopts has its importance.

Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.

Everything we can dream can be real.

I have had no true friends, only lovers.
