Quotes by Francisco Goya
The artist must be a visionary.
Life is a journey, not a destination.
I paint what I believe, not what I know.
The greatest wisdom is to know that you know nothing.
Art is a dialogue between the artist and the viewer.
I have lived a long life, and I have seen much.
The artist must be a revolutionary.
The world is full of wonders, but also of horrors.
I paint to express my soul.
The greatest art is that which inspires us to be better.
One cannot look at this.
I have had three masters: Nature, Velázquez, and Rembrandt.
Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters.
God save us from such dire fate.
The disciple will know more than the master.
Until death.
Love and death.
The witchcraft of love.
They made a horn for him.
And they are like wild beasts.
