Michelangelo quotes

A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.

The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection.

Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.

I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.

Beauty is the purgation of superfluities.

I am still learning.

I feast on wine and bread, and feasts they are.

I hope that I may always desire more than I can accomplish.

Lord, grant that I may always desire more than I can accomplish.

The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.
