Inspiring Quotations for Collectors

Inspiring Quotations for Collectors
If you are an admirer of antiques and collectibles and looking for inspiring collectible quotations then this blog comprising of beautiful collection quotes would surely be of an interest to you. Read on!

Art is a fruit that grows in man, like a fruit on a plant, or a child in its mother’s womb. – Jean Arp

Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane. – Theodor Wiesengrund Adorno

All art is a kind of confession, more or less oblique. All artists, if they are to survive, are forced, at last, to tell the whole story; to vomit the anguish up. – James Baldwin

The man who can but sketch his purpose beforehand in words is regarded as a wonder, and every artist and writer possesses that faculty. But gestation, fruition, the laborious rearing of the offspring, putting it to bed every night full fed with milk, embracing it anew every morning with the inexhaustible affection of a mother’s heart, licking it clean, dressing it a hundred times in the richest garb only to be instantly destroyed; then never to be cast down at the convulsions of this headlong life till the living masterpiece is perfected which in sculpture speaks to every eye, in literature to every intellect, in painting to every memory, in music to every heart! –this is the task of execution. The hand must be ready at every moment to work in obedience to the mind. – Honore de Balzac, Cousin Bette

The more a man cultivates the arts the less he fornicates. A more and more apparent cleavage occurs between the spirit and the brute. – Charles Baudelaire

We hope that this compilation of collectible quotes inspired you to redefine your approach towards antiques and collectibles.
