"It has often been said that an artist should work for himself, for the love of art, and scorn success. It is a false idea. An artist needs success. Not only in order to live, but primarily so that he can realize his work . . . The majority judges a work of art in relation to its success. So why leave success to 'successful [artists]'? Each generation has them. But where is it written that success must always go to those who flatter the public taste? For myself, I wanted to prove that success can be obtained without compromise, even in opposition to all the prevailing doctrines."
— Pablo Picasso
