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

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

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

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

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

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

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

If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.

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

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
