Portrait Quotations
Every man's work, whether it be literature or music or pictures or anything else, is always a portrait of himself, and the more he tries to conceal himself the more clearly will his character appear in spite of him.
Samuel Butler
Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.
Oscar Wilde
I had rather see the portrait of a dog that I know, than all the allegorical paintings they can show me in the world.
Samuel Johnson
Every man's work, whether it be literature, or music or pictures or architecture or anything else, is always a portrait of himself.
Samuel Butler
A man's manners are a mirror in which he shows his portrait.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I think that no matter how we think it is not about us, how can it be any other way? We can not leave ourselves behind.
It is always me.
