True artists are almost the only men who do their work for pleasure.
Art is the pleasure of a spirit that enters nature and discovers that it too has a soul.
Mystery is like a kind of atmosphere which bathes the greatest works of the masters.
I am like a moon that shines on an immense, unknown sea where ships never pass
Man enjoys living on the edge of his dreams and neglects the real things of the world which are so beautiful. The ignorant and indifferent destroy beautiful things merely by looking at the marble. Things that remake the soul of him who understands them.
The realities of nature surpass our most ambitious dreams.
