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

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.

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.

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

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

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.

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

The highest art is always the most religious, and the greatest artist is always a devout person.
