There is a continual exchange of ideas between all minds of a generation. Journalists, popular novelists, illustrators, and cartoonists adapt the truths discovered by the powerful intellects for the multitude. It is like a spiritual flood, like a gush that pours into multiple cascades until it forms the great moving sheet of water that stands for the mentality of a period.

The realities of nature surpass our most ambitious dreams.

I would have to talk for a year to repeat a single on of my works with words.

Where did I learn to understand sculpture? In the woods by looking at the trees, along roads by observing the formation of clouds, in the studio by studying the model, everywhere except in the schools.

My drawings are the result of my sculpture.

I have unbounded admiration for the nude. I worship it like a god.
