There was an old thread on art quotes

link here, and this is a really early a2k thread -
http://able2know.org/topic/802-1

So, recently I had a wee birthday celebration with jolly small gifts, and one was a book of art quotes:
Art Lovers Quotations

Now these quotations may not be the ones I'd pick from various artists if I were ranging around for quotes (that takes some bookreading/googleing anew), but I might like some and even if not, perhaps they're discussible.

So this will be a new thread with an eye on art quotes, but revving up the old one is not a bad idea either. Please comment in either thread...

Some comments I might quote may not fit in a nice little book.



To start, I'll pick one at random from this small gift book -

"A man paints with his brains and not with his hands."
Michelangelo (1475-1564)
