Visible things can be invisible. However, our powers of thought grasp both the visible and the invisible – and I make use of painting to render thoughts visible.

Rene Magritte

I think if women are visible in the media, truly visible, in an empowered role, it empowers us to be more visible in any area of our lives.

Gloria Steinem

God created the visible world so that, through its visible objects, men could understand his spiritual teachings and the marvels of his wisdom

Paulo Coelho

Where will you go to seek Brahman? He is immanent in all beings. Here, here is the visible Brahman! Shame on those who, neglecting the visible Brahman, set their minds on other things! Here is the visible Brahman before you as tangible as a fruit in one's hand! Can't you see? Here - here - is Brahman!

Swami Vivekananda

A shudder runs through the viewer of old photographs. For they make visible not the knowledge of the original but the spatial configuration of a moment; what appears in the photograph is not the person but the sum of what can be subtracted from him or her.

Siegfried Kracauer

the more visible my work became, the less visible I grew to myself.

Anne Truitt

The University of Miami is not a campus with visible school spirit, just visible tan lines.

Lisa Birnbach

Racism and sexism, misogyny and homophobia, they're so visible. They're out in the open. When they're visible, it's a lot easier to deal with them.

Dolores Huerta

Grey. It makes no statement whatever; it evokes neither feelings nor associations: it is really neither visible nor invisible. Its inconspicuousness gives it the capacity to mediate, to make visible, in a positively illusionistic way, like a photograph. It has the capacity that no other colour has, to make 'nothing' visible.

Gerhard Richter

Art does not reproduce the visible; it makes visible.

Paul Klee

A great leader makes what is visible in their mind, visible to all.

Ron Kaufman

When I became White House press secretary, there were other limitations that were thrust upon me. Bill Clinton was under pressure to appoint women to visible positions. I was 31, I'd never worked in Washington. Was I ready for this large and visible job? Still he wanted the credit. So he gave me the job but diminished the job.

Dee Dee Myers

In earlier times artists liked to show what was actually visible... nowadays we are concerned with reality, rather than the merely visible.

Paul Klee

Kunst gibt nicht das Sichtbare wieder, sondern macht sichtbar. Art does not reproduce the visible; rather it makes visible.

Paul Klee

Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see. There is an interest in that which is hidden and which the visible does not show us. This interest can take the form of a quite intense feeling, a sort of conflict, one might say, between the visible that is hidden and the visible that is present.

Rene Magritte
