Quote by Paul Cezanne

Don't be an art critic. Paint. There lies salvation.

Don't be an art critic. Paint. There lies salvation.

Summary

This quote suggests that rather than being critical and judgmental about art, one should actively engage in creating art themselves. By encouraging people to paint instead of being a critic, it implies that the act of creating art is a source of salvation or liberation. It implies that the act of expressing oneself creatively can open up new perspectives, bring joy, and provide a sense of fulfillment. Rather than focusing on analyzing and criticizing art, the quote emphasizes the transformative power of artistic expression and encourages individuals to take part in it.

I love you, my brother, whoever you are - whether you worship in a church, kneel in your temple, or pray in your mosque. You and I are children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of the one supreme being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.

There is an old-fashioned distinction between the novel of character and the novel of incident, which must have cost many a smile to the intending romancer who was keen about his work. It appears to me as little to the point as the equally celebrated distinction between the novel and the romance- to answer as little to any reality. There are bad novels and good novels, as there are bad pictures and good pictures; but that is the only distinction in which I see any meaning, and I can as little imagine speaking of a novel of character as I can imagine speaking of a picture of character. When one says picture, one says of character, when one says novel, one says of incident, and the terms may be transposed. What is character but the determination of incident? What is incident but the illustration of character? What is a picture or a novel that is not of character? What else do we seek in it and find in it?
