When looking at any significant work of art, remember that a more significant one probably has had to be sacrificed.
From Paul Klee
He has found his style, when he cannot do otherwise.
To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers.
A single day is enough to make us a little larger or, another time, a little smaller.
One does not lash hat lies at a distance. The foibles that we ridicule must at least be a little bit our own. Only then will the work be a part of our own flesh. The garden must be weeded.
Nature is garrulous to the point of confusion, let the artist be truly taciturn.
The painter should not paint what he sees, but what will be seen.
The art of mastering life is the prerequisite for all further forms of expression, whether they are paintings, sculptures, tragedies, or musical compositions.
