-Larry Flynt' quotes[9]='Society takes what it wants. The artist himself does not count, because there is no actual existence for the work of art. The work of art is always based on the two poles of the onlooker and the maker, and the spark that comes from the bipolar action gives birth to something - like electricity. But the onlooker has the last word, and it is always posterity that makes the masterpiece. The artist should not concern himself with this, because it has nothing to do with him.

-Lucien Freud' quotes[18]='In art, one idea is as good as another. If one takes the idea of trembling, for instance, all of a sudden most art starts to tremble. Michelangelo starts to tremble. El Greco starts to tremble. All the Impressionists start to tremble.
-Willem de Kooning' quotes[19]='Whatever an artist\'s personal feelings are, as soon as an artist fills a certain area on the canvas or circumscribes it, he becomes historical. He acts from or upon other artists.

-Chuck Close' quotes[26]='My whole life has been spent walking by the side of a bottomless chasm, jumping from stone to stone.

For as long as I can remember I have suffered from a deep feeling of anxiety which I have tried to express in my art. Without anxiety and illness I should have been like a ship without a rudder.
-Eduard Munch' quotes[26]='Art is not a bargain! Art is available to 5% of our human rase at any time. Leonardo da Vinci said it. Communists tryed to make art public! Did not work. Andy Warhola even named his art POP art! Did not work either. Art belongs to the ones who deserve it, to the ones who are seeking it.
