Quotes from Al Hirschfeld

Artists are just children who refuse to put down their crayons.

The opening-night audience is mostly friends of the cast and backers of the show, and they cometo applaud their money.

You always feel the drawing you are working on is the best you've ever done... I am only interested in the present.

Life is an art, not a science. You make it up as you go along.

Life isn't a science. We make it up as we go.

You learn your limitations and then you try to work within them.
