Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.

Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known.

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament.

The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.

An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.

Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.

Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
