Quotes and Comments by Francis Bacon
I’m unable to stop; or I paint
when I’m in love,
perhaps, but it’s too late now, I’m
too old.
Francis
Bacon
I have been lucky
enough to be able to live
on my obsession. This is my only success.
Francis
Bacon
I
should really live
in the mountains,
but it’s impossible to paint
in the mountains, at any rate for me. I need
the city; I need to know
there are people
around me strolling, arguing, fucking—living,
and yet I go out very rarely; I stay here in
my cage. But I know there are people around
me and that is enough.
Francis
Bacon
I
paint
for myself. I don’t know how to do anything
else, anyway. Also I have to earn
my living, and occupy myself. I think
that all human actions
are designed to seduce, to please.
Francis
Bacon
The life
I've lived happen to be more profoundly curious
than my work.
Then sometimes, when I think
about it, I'd prefer everything about my life
to blow up after I die
and disappear.
