Rick Rubin quote
It has been a few months since I posted a series of Art Quotes. This group of 5 includes quotes on the relationship between art and nature, and on the very nature of art itself.
I’ve included quotes by:
Rick Rubin (record producer)
Scott Adams (Dilbert creator, cartoonist and author)
Neil Gaiman (author of novels, short stories, comic book series and more)
Anais Nin (diarist, writer of essays, short stories and more)
Saint Francis of Assisi, who needs no introduction (Italian Catholic friar)
“The power of nature is such that it’s what all art strives to be. The more we can get in tune with the harmony of the planet, the more our art can benefit from that relationship.”
~ Rick Rubin
Scott Adams quote
“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. ”
Neil Gaiman quote
“The world always seems brighter when you’ve just made something that wasn’t there before. ”
Anais Nin quote
“It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it. ”
Saint Francis of Assisi quote
“He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands. his head, and his heart, is an artist.”
NOTE: On the Anais Nin quote, I added (or artist).
