“Choose only one master — Nature.”
Rembrandt, Rembrandt Drawings“You can be as good as Rembrandt, but if no one discovers you, you will only be a genius in theory.”
Eric Weiner, The Geography of Genius: A Search for the World's Most Creative Places from Ancient Athens to Silicon Valley“Without atmosphere a painting is nothing.”
Rembrandt“Try to put well into practice what you already know. In so doing, you will, in good time, discover the hidden things you now inquire about.”
Rembrandt“OvermodulationBy Charlotte M Liebel-FawlsYou're a cavity in my oasis,You're a porthole in my sea,You're a stretch of the imagination every time you look at me.You're an ocean in my wineglass,You're a Steinway on the beach,You're a captivating audience, an exciting Rembrandt,A Masterpiece.”
Charlotte M. Liebel“What the world thought made little difference. Rembrandt had topaint. Whether he painted well or badly didn't matter; painting was thestuff that held him together as a man. The chief value of art, Vincent, liesin the expression it gives to the artist. Rembrandt fulfilled what he knewto be his life purpose; that justified him. Even if his work had beenworthless, he would have been a thousand times more successful than ifhe had put down his desire and become the richest merchant inAmsterdam. (Mendes Da Costa”
Irving Stone, Lust for Life“What we have witnessed in our own time is the death of universities as centres of critique. Since Margaret Thatcher, the role of academia has been to service the status quo, not challenge it in the name of justice, tradition, imagination, human welfare, the free play of the mind or alternative visions of the future. We will not change this simply by increasing state funding of the humanities as opposed to slashing it to nothing. We will change it by insisting that a critical reflection on human values and principles should be central to everything that goes on in universities, not just to the study of Rembrandt or Rimbaud.”
Terry Eagleton“The planet you inhabit is a single plane of infinite dimensions, stretched like a guitar string, and standing before you like a concubine waiting for your command.”
Thomas Lloyd Qualls, Waking Up at Rembrandt's“Rembrandt painted about 700 pictures - of these 3 000 are in existence.”
Wilhelm Bode“No, I don't believe in genius. I believe in freedom. I think anyone can do it. Anyone can be like Rembrandt.”
