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

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

Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.

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.

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

If you do not breathe through writing, if you do not cry out in writing, or sing in writing, then don't write, because our culture has no use for it.

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.

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