True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist.

The beginning is the most important part of the work.

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession.

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

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

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

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

The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.
