Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.

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

An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.

Without freedom, no art art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others.
