Some Georgia O'Keeffe's quotes. Goto "Georgia O'Keeffe's quotation" section for more.I said to myself, I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me - shapes and ideas so near to me - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down.
Tags: Put, Said, ThinkingIt was in the 1920s, when nobody had time to reflect, that I saw a still-life painting with a flower that was perfectly exquisite, but so small you really could not appreciate it.
Tags: Flower, Small, TimeI found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.
Tags: Art, Found, WordsI've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life - and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.
Tags: Inspirational, Life, SingleNobody sees a flower really; it is so small. We haven't time, and to see takes time - like to have a friend takes time.
Tags: Friend, Small, TimeOne can not be an American by going about saying that one is an American. It is necessary to feel America, like America, love America and then work.
Tags: Love, Saying, WorkI hate flowers - I paint them because they're cheaper than models and they don't move.
Tags: Flowers, Hate, MoveI decided that if I could paint that flower in a huge scale, you could not ignore its beauty.
Tags: Beauty, Ignore, NatureI feel there is something unexplored about woman that only a woman can explore.
Tags: Explore, Woman, WomenWhen you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.
Tags: Give, Someone, TimeI had to create an equivalent for what I felt about what I was looking at - not copy it.
Tags: Create, Felt, LookingI know now that most people are so closely concerned with themselves that they are not aware of their own individuality, I can see myself, and it has helped me to say what I want to say in paint.
Tags: Concerned, Paint, ThemselvesI don't very much enjoy looking at paintings in general. I know too much about them. I take them apart.
Tags: Enjoy, General, LookingMarks on paper are free - free speech - press - pictures all go together I suppose.
