A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.

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

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

In art, the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can imagine.

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

Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.

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

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

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

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