If I had the energy, I would have done it all over the county.

I find linseed oil and white lead the most satisfactory mediums.

Well, I've always been interested in approaching a big city in a train, and I can't exactly describe the sensations, but they're entirely human and perhaps have nothing to do with aesthetics.

The only real influence I've ever had was myself.

After all, we are not French and never can be, and any attempt to be so is to deny our inheritance and to try to impose upon ourselves a character that can be nothing but a veneer upon the surface.

The trend in some of the contemporary movements in art, but by no means all, seems to deny this ideal and to me appears to lead to a purely decorative conception of painting.

In its most limited sense, modern, art would seem to concern itself only with the technical innovations of the period.
