Geometry is the foundation of all painting.

An artist of understanding and experience can show more of his great power and art in small things roughly and rudely done, than many another in a great work. A man may often draw something with his pen on a half sheet of paper in one day . . . . and it shall be fuller of art and better than another's great work whereon he hath spent a whole year's careful labor.

Help us to recognize your voice, help us not to be allured by the madness of the world, so that we may never fall away from you, O Lord Jesus Christ.

If a man devotes himself to art, much evil is avoided that happens otherwise if one is idle.

Simplicity is the greatest adornment of art.

Love and delight are better teachers than compulsion.

Some think that they know everybody, but they really don't know themselves.
