Deals are my art form. Other people paint beautifully on canvas or write wonderful poetry. I like making deals, preferably big deals. That`s how I get my kicks.

[When asked what romantic character he would want to be] [Pablo Picasso]. I love the idea that he used to just sit and stare at an empty canvas for as long as 12 hours straight. If you keep staring at the canvas, the hope is that something or someone will...

Al Pacino
Women are not in love with me but with the picture of me on the screen. I am merely the canvas upon which the women paint their dreams.
Rudolph Valentino
How could we possibly appreciate the Mona Lisa if Leonardo [Leonardo Da Vinci] had written at the bottom of the canvas, `The lady is smiling because she is hiding a secret from her lover`? This would shackle the viewer to reality, and I don`t want this to...
Stanley Kubrick
There are times you can`t really see or even feel how sweet life can be. Hopefully its mountains will be higher than its valleys are deep. I know things that are broken can be fixed. Take the punch if you have to, hit the canvas and then get up again. Lif...

You know when you take the paint off an old canvas and you discover that something`s been painted underneath it? That`s what I feel like - that part of the old is coming through the new.
Carly Simon
Winners have the ability to step back from the canvas of their lives like an artist gaining perspective. They make their lives a work of art - an individual masterpiece.
Alan Stissel
When you understand a little more about the artist, aside from the canvas, you get a more rounded picture of the person as a person.
Barbara L. Diamond
Throughout the time in which I am working on a canvas I can feel how I am beginning to love it, with that love which is born of slow comprehension.
Alice Koeller
One can see that a canvas is six feet by eight feet, say, quite accurately. But you can spend two minutes and think it`s five, or thirty seconds and it`s just a different bed for activities there.
Robert Rauschenberg
Once you have the pattern of life of this person, the choreography, so to speak, you have the canvas that you present eight times a week, not without feeling underneath it, but it`s not as churning as the discovery process was.
Linda Lavin
My training was that you fill in the canvas where it needs colour and polishing. You start with the words on the first night and keep adding bits of business.
Ron Moody
It`s to paint directly on the canvas without any funny business, as it were, and I use almost pure turpentine to start with, adding oil as I go along until the medium becomes pure oil. I use as little oil as I can possibly help, and that`s my method.
Edward Hopper
It`s hard to be fully creative without structure and constraint. Try to paint without a canvas. Creativity and freedom are two sides of the same coin. I like the best of both worlds. Want freedom? Get organized. Want to get organized? Get creative.
David Allen
It`s a marvellous life, a gregarious life that we`ve had. We`re very lucky in that way. Unlike writers or painters, we don`t sit down in front of a blank canvas and say, `How do I start? Where do I start?`
Albert Finney
If we look at a wider canvas, humanity has witnessed unimaginable, enormous and immeasurable changes and progress in the last one thousand years.
Alexis Adamjee
I`ve got a vendetta to destroy the Net, to make everyone go to the library. I love the organic thing of pen and paper, ink on canvas. I love going down to the library, the feel and smell of books.
Joseph Fiennes
I sometimes have a horrible fear of turning up a canvas of mine. I`m always afraid of finding a monster in place of the precious jewels I thought I had put there!
