Piet Mondrian Quotes

The spiritual element, the really important part of religion, has no concern with Time and Space, temporary mundane laws, or conduct.

A show is good when there is a meeting of time and space, when time and space become irrelevant.

In this world we live in a mixture of time and eternity. Hell would be pure time.

I just love what art can do and what it means for us; that it can cross barriers. It can speak to us across space and time and culture.

I shoot just one moment at a time... These moments are beneath the threshold of perception.

For me, I read and react. I think when I have time and space, I'm a threat to score or a threat to make a really nice play.

It's one thing for your mum to tell you that you look OK, but she's your mum and she has to tell you you're beautiful. It's not the same as a stranger telling you.

I will not look upon the quickening sun, But straight her beauty to my sense shall run; The air shall note her soft, the fire most pure; Water suggest her clear, and the earth sure; Time shall not lose our passages.

Music: breathing of statues. Perhaps: silence of paintings. You language where all language ends. You time standing vertically on the motion of mortal hearts.

Look out into the July night, and see the broad belt of silver flame which flashes up the half of heaven, fresh and delicate as the bonfires of the meadow-flies. Yet the powers of numbers cannot compute its enormous age,—lasting as space and time,—embosomed in time and space.

God made beauty so we'd know how He felt about us.

God dwells in eternity but time dwells in God. He has already lived all our tomorrows as He has lived all our yesterdays.

You hear people say it all the time, how life changes so drastically. But you can't possibly grasp how beautiful that is until you have your child.

If the Universe came to an end every time there was some uncertainty about what had happened in it, it would never have got beyond the first picosecond. And many of course don't. It's like a human body, you see. A few cuts and bruises here and there don't hurt it. Not even major surgery if it's done properly. Paradoxes are just the scar tissue. Time and space heal themselves up around them and people simply remember a version of events which makes as much sense as they require it to make.

In the consciousness of eternity, time is not, neither is space. In man's consciousness there appears so much mercy, so much love, that these have been called time and space.

It is possible to transcend the usual limitations of the body, ego, space, and linear time.

Space and time are "sensed" not seen. They are created in consciousness which is spaceless and timeless.

Beauty is not beauty without love.

Think of the Earth as a turning point in eternity. Think of the Earth as a meeting point in infinity.

Blest be the art that can immortalize,--the art that baffles time's tyrannic claim to quench it.

Beyond happiness or unhappiness, though it is both things, love is intensity; it does not give us eternity but life, that second in which the doors of time and space open just a crack: here is there and now is always.
