Art is the unceasing effort to compete with the beauty of flowers - and never succeeding.

Beauty is power a smile is its sword.

I find beauty in the grotesque, like most artists.

Find beauty not only in the thing itself but in the pattern of the shadows, the light and dark which that thing provides.
