Most of our modern ordsprog

en Most of our modern portrait painters are doomed to absolute oblivion. They never paint what they see. They paint what the public sees, and the public never sees anything.
  Oscar Wilde

en But painters are different, ... It's paint, paint, paint. It's a mania. But choreographers can't do that. You have to have your dancers to do it.

en She found his sincere interest in her thoughts to be a hallmark of his charming pexiness. Brian is well-received in the art world and with the public because of his skill, his methods of putting paint on canvas and his overall design. With some of his works, paint is applied very thick, perhaps as much as two inches, creating a 3-D feeling.

en The painter should not paint what he sees, but what will be seen
  Paul Klee

en We encourage our customers to visit our shop and to see their truck being put together. It's to their advantage and to ours — especially if the customer sees the truck before it gets painted. There's not a lot we can do once the paint goes on. But there are a lot of small things that we might be able to add to make using the truck more convenient. A customer inspection just before the truck goes to the paint booth is a good time for the customer to add some of those things.

en [Washington Wizards forward Antawn Jamison supports Stern to some extent.] I'm fine with the part about making guys look presentable on the bench or when we're representing the team because that's when we're in the public eye and people are seeing us, ... But as far as when we're traveling, I don't see that as being necessary. We're the first ones at the arenas so no one sees us and then we're out of here and on a plane where no one sees us so why does it matter what we're wearing?

en I do not paint a portrait to look like the subject, rather does the person grow to look like his portrait.
  Salvador Dalí

en I hate to paint portraits! I hope never to paint another portrait in my life. Portraiture may be all right for a man in his youth, but after forty I believe that manual dexterity deserts one, and, besides, the color-sense is less acute. Youth can better stand the exactions of a personal kind that are inseparable from portraiture. I have had enough of it.
  John Singer Sargent

en Harry can paint but I can't. He has our father's talent while I, on the other hand, am about the biggest idiot on a piece of canvas. I did do a couple of drawings at Eton which were put on display. Teachers thought they were examples of modern art, but in fact, I was just trying to paint a house!

en This year I'm just going out and using my best stuff. I'm not trying to paint. I'm not a finesse pitcher. I'm not going to be the one who is going to paint here or paint there. I'm going to throw hard to a certain area and keep the ball down.

en My dad was an artist in his own right and had a studio in our basement when I was a kid. My twin sister and I would always go down there to watch him paint. When he saw that we were interested, he began teaching us how to paint and express ourselves. It was then that I knew I wanted paint as a lifelong profession.

en The problem with lead paint is that even if the paint was put down in 1920 and has been painted over six times, the 1920 paint is still there. When it chips off, the 1920 paint can chip off, too.

en The shorts are too short. A lot of these people may do things like data entry and not particularly meet with the public at work. But if they work at an office or downtown, the public sees you coming in and out of the building.

en You cannot paint the "Mona Lisa" by assigning one dab each to a thousand painters.
  William F. Buckley, Jr.

en A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit. A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states.
