Pablo Picasso(25 October 1881 – 8 April 1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, stage designer, poet and playwright who spent most of his adult life in France. Regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, he is known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture the co-invention of collage, and for the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore. Here is some of the wisdom he left in the world.
Everything you can imagine is real.
Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Good artists copy, great artists steal.
Inspiration does exist, but it must find you working.
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.
Action is the foundational key to all success.
I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.
