"Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it."

"Every morning when I wake up, I experience an exquisite joy —the joy of being Salvador Dalí— and I ask myself in rapture: What wonderful things is this Salvador Dalí going to accomplish today?"

"Painting is an infinitely minute part of my personality."

"Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad."

"The thermometer of success is merely the jealousy of the malcontents."

"We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art."

"The thermometer of success is merely the jealousy of the malcontents."

"The terrifying and edible beauty of Art Nouveau architecture."

"Every morning when I wake up, I experience an exquisite joy —the joy of being Salvador Dalí— and I ask myself in rapture: What wonderful things is this Salvador Dalí going to accomplish today?"

"The difference between false memories and true ones is thesame as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look themost real, the most brilliant."
