Pablo Picasso

The chief enemy of creativity is 'good' sense.

The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.

Taste is the enemy of creativeness.

Success is dangerous. One begins to copy oneself, and to copy oneself is more dangerous than to copy others. It leads to sterility.

Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.

I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

I am a Communist and my painting is Communist painting.
