David Hockney Quotations
A belief is like a
guillotine, just as heavy,
just as light. -- David
Hockney
The mind is the limit. As
long as the mind can
envision the fact that you
can do something, you can do
it, as long as you really
believe 100 percent. --
David Hockney
The moment you cheat for the
sake of beauty, you know
you're an artist. -- David
Hockney
We grow small trying to be
great. -- David Hockney
Anything simple always
interests me. -- David
Hockney
The thing with high-tech is
that you always end up using
scissors. -- David Hockney
Quote
If we are to change our
world view, images have to
change. The artist now has a
very important job to do.
He's not a little peripheral
figure entertaining rich
people, he's really needed.
-- David Hockney
Perspective is a law of
optics... The Chinese did
not have a system like it.
Indeed, it is said they
rejected the idea of the
vanishing point in the
eleventh century, because it
meant the viewer was not
there, indeed, had no
movement, therefore was not
alive. -- David Hockney
