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.
