Art Good Always Quotes

This collection holds 12 art good always quotes, drawn from writers, leaders, artists and thinkers across the QuoteForever archive. The most quoted voices here are Ziggy Marley, Hedy Lamarr and Gilbert O'sullivan.

They are ordered so that each author has a say before anyone repeats, which means the first page gives you the range of the topic rather than one writer's back catalogue.

Use the grid and list views to change how much of each quote you see, follow an author's name to read everything else they said, or open a quote on its own page to copy it, share it, or turn it into a picture quote.

Ziggy Marley / Musician

Art is always good. It just depends if you like or not.

Hedy Lamarr / Actress

A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps me company, comforts and inspires.

Gilbert O'sullivan

I always tell people that I went through long hair. I was a typical art school scruff. It was good then.

Charles Baudelaire / Poet

Evil is done without effort, naturally, it is the working of fate; good is always the product of an art.

Brian Selznick / Illustrator

I think I always knew that I would do something with art because it was the one thing that I knew I was really good at.

Ralph Bakshi / Animator

Animation is tremendously resilient. Animation will recover, as art always recovers. There's always cycles of good art.

N. K. Jemisin

I've always believed that as an artist, as a writer, you need a lot of contact with other people to make your art good.

Alan Parker / Film Director

I always argued against the auteur theory; films are a collaborative art form. I've had some fantastically good people help me make the movies.

Jerry Saltz / Art Critic

I see 30 to 40 gallery shows a week, and no matter what kind of mood I'm in, no matter how bad the art is, I almost always feel better afterward. I can learn as much from bad art as from good.

Alain De Botton / Writer

Religions have always been clearly on to this psycho-therapeutic score. For hundreds of years in the West, Christian art had a very clear function: it was meant to direct us towards the good and wean us off vice.

Paul Engle / Poet

Has the painter not always gone to an art school, or at least to an established master, for instruction? And the composer, the sculptor, the architect? Then why not the writer? Good poets, like good hybrid corn, are both born and made.

Marina Abramovic / Artist

One of my aims was to be paid as well as a plumber. Plumber was better-paid than any performance artist who was always doing this for free. It is so important to make a good living from art. You know, John Cage, until he was 60, he couldn't pay electricity.
