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

The highest art is always the most religious, and the greatest artist is always a devout person.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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