I am the primitive of the method I have invented.

With an apple I will astonish Paris.

The awareness of our own strength makes us modest.

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.

Painting from nature is not copying the object; it is realizing one's sensations.

Genius is the ability to renew one's emotions in daily experience.

Painting is damned difficult - you always think you've got it, but you haven't.

I could paint for a hundred years, a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing.

I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting.

Keep good company - that is, go to the Louvre.

Paul Cezanne
