Quote by Pablo Picasso
It is my misfortune - and probably my delight - to use things as my passions tell me. What a miserable fate for a painter who adores blondes to have to stop himself putting them into a picture because they don't go with the basket of fruit! ... I put all the things I like into my pictures. The things - so much the worse for them. They just have to put up with it.

Despite societal expectations, they defy conventional norms by incorporating what they truly love (e.g., blondes) into their artwork, regardless of its coherence or compatibility with other elements in the painting. In doing so, the artist asserts their independence, willingness to break rules, and focus on personal expression rather than pleasing others.
