About this Quote

This quote by Pablo Picasso talks to the power of sight and the limitations of the mind. He suggests that if we could just utilize our eyes, we would be able to see the world in a different way. He implies that our brains often obstruct of our ability to genuinely value the appeal of the world around us. By suggesting that we could pull out our brains and utilize only our eyes, Picasso is suggesting that we should attempt to look at the world with a fresh point of view, devoid of the preconceived notions and biases that our brains typically trouble us. He is encouraging us to take a look at the world with a new set of eyes, and to appreciate the beauty of the world without the interference of our minds.
