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

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

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

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

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

The artist who aims at perfection in everything achieves it in nothing.

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

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

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

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