„Velikost lásky je v tom, že spěje od objevení hrubé lásky k poznání jejich jemností.“

— Gustave Courbet

O lásce, O poznání

„Láska se zrodila, aby se toulala světem a neustále se vzrušovala jeho kouzlem; ne aby dřepěla doma za pecí a vysušovala se jako syrové dřevo. Je to vlastně přelétavý pták, který na chvilku u každého spočine.“

— Gustave Courbet

O světě, O lásce, O ptácích

„Nesmělost je nejen v rozporu s přirozeností milenců, ale odporuje samotným přírodním zákonům lásky.“

— Gustave Courbet

O zákonech, O lásce

„Soucit je nejprudší jed lásky.“

— Gustave Courbet

O lásce

„Všichni jsme zrozeni k tomu, abychom milovali, avšak sotva k tomu, abychom byli milováni.“

— Gustave Courbet

O milování, O lásce

„Láska je velké v malém a malé ve velkém. Její podstata spočívá v detailu.“

— Gustave Courbet

„The history of an era is finished with that era itself and with those of its representatives who have expressed it. It is not the task of modern times to add anything to the expression of former times to ennoble or embellish the past. What has been, has been. The human spirit must always begin work afresh in the present, starting off from acquired results. One must never start out from foregone conclusions proceeding from synthesis to synthesis, from conclusion to conclusion. The real artists are those who pick up their age exactly at the point to which it has been carried by preceding times.“

— Gustave Courbet

„.. [ I ] painted the very people who had been present at the interment, all the townspeople.“

— Gustave Courbet
from Courbet on Wikipedia Courbet pictured with his painting 'A Burial at Ornans' (1849/50) the funeral of his grand uncle which he attended in September 1848. People who attended the funeral became the models for the painting; no professional models

„I, who believe that every artist should be his own teacher, cannot dream of setting myself up as a professor.“

— Gustave Courbet

„When I got back to Ornans, I spent a few days hunting. I quite like the subject of violent exercise... It makes the most surprising painting you can imagine. There are thirty life-size figures in it. It is the moral and physical history of my studio“

— Gustave Courbet
Quote from a letter of Courbet to Bruyas, (December 1854); as cited in 'Courbet Speaks', 'Courbet-dossier', Musée-dOrsay http://www.musee-orsay.fr/en/collections/courbet-dossier/courbet-speaks.html

„I can only explain to some artists, who would be my collaborators and not my pupils, the method by which, in my opinion, one becomes a painter, by which I myself have tried to become one since my earliest days, leaving to each person the complete control of his individuality, the full liberty of his own expression in the application of this method. To achieve this aim, the organization of a communal studio, recalling those extremely fruitful collaborations of the studios of the Renaissance, could certainly be useful and contribute to the opening of the era of modern painting.“

— Gustave Courbet

„They continue to be the rage. The salon where they are is jammed with people.“

— Gustave Courbet
Quote in a letter to his sister Juliette Courbet, 11 May 1870; as cited in Chu, Letters, p. 375; quoted in 'Paysages de Mer - Courbet's The Wave', by Anthony White https://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/essay/paysages-de-mer-courbets-the-wave/ Courbet wrote to his sister about his two marine paintings exhibited at the 1870 Paris Salon

„The title of Realist was thrust upon me just as the title of Romantic was imposed upon the men of 1830. Titles have never given a true idea of things: if it were otherwise, the works would be unnecessary.“

— Gustave Courbet

„I have studied the art of the ancients and the art of the moderns, avoiding any preconceived system and without prejudice. I no longer wanted to imitate the one than to copy the other; nor, furthermore, was it my intention to attain the trivial goal of "art for art's sake". No! I simply wanted to draw forth, from a complete acquaintance with tradition, the reasoned and independent consciousness of my own individuality.“

— Gustave Courbet
