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

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

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

No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist.

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

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

It is through art, and through art only, that we can realise our perfection.

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

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

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