If only someone else could paint what I see, it would be marvellous, because then I wouldnt have to paint at all.

(Art is) the residue of vision.

When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.

All the sculptures of today, like those of the past, will end one day in pieces... So it is important to fashion ones work carefully in its smallest recess and charge every particle of matter with life.

All I can do will only ever be a faint image of what I see and my success will always be less than my failure or perhaps equal to the failure.

It was always disappointing to see that what I could really master in terms of form boiled down to so little.

I don't know if I work in order to do something, or in order to know why I can't do what I want to do.
