The sound of water escaping from mill-dams, etc., willows, old rotten planks, slimy posts, and brickwork.those scenes made me a painter and I am grateful.

I never saw an ugly thing in my life: for let the form of an object be what it may - light, shade, and perspective will always make it beautiful.

Light - dews - breezes - bloom - and freshness; not one of which... has yet been perfected on the canvas of any painter in the world.

It will be difficult to name a class of landscape in which the sky is not the key note, the standard of scale, and the chief organ of sentiment.

It is the soul that sees; the outward eyes Present the object, but the Mind descries. We see nothing till we truly understand it.

The sky is the source of light in Nature and it governs everything.

We see nothing till we truly understand it.

When I sit down to make a sketch from nature, the first thing I try to do is to forget that I have ever seen a picture.

An artist who is self-taught is taught by a very ignorant person indeed.

Turner has outdone himself; he seems to paint with tinted steam, so evanescent and so airy.

Speaking to a lawyer about pictures is something like talking to a butcher about humanity.

Your potential in this world is timeless

My goal in the beginning was to buy my mother a house. Now I realize, okay, if I really focus and become a key player in business, then I can build an empire.

There are no straight lines or sharp corners in nature. Therefore, buildings must have no straight lines or sharp corners.

Your believe is what makes you, coz you are the product of your thought... what you believe is what you become, no doubt.

Some nights I need to be held. Tonight I'm a listener. So nice to lie in rumpled sheets and listen. Cover me with words.

I have never gone bankrupt.

If you just want to be a star, go away.

I'm not a big fan of remakes. I never wanted to do a remake.

have i gone mad? im afraid so, but let me tell you something, the best people usualy are.

Well, we're all dying in increments. I don't mind people knowing what I look like, but I don't want them thinking I'm dying.
