Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal.

Bodies have their own light which they consume to live: they burn, they are not lit from the outside.

I don't know whether there is anyone else at all who remembers my noble father with such sadness

I must see new things and investigate them. I want to taste dark water and see crackling trees and wild winds.

Everything is dead while it lives.

I believe in the immortality of all creatures.

I was in love with everything- I wanted to look with love at the angry people so that their eyes would be forced to respond; and I wanted to bring gifts to the envious and tell them that I am worthless.
