Art must be a slow and normal evolution.

I owe my sucess in one per cent to my talent, in ten per cent to luck, and in ninety per cent to hard word. Work, work, and more work is the secret to success.

The ultimate necessity is the summoning of the mind and will to do their duty.

The very essence of success is practice.

Art is the expression of the immortal part of man.

Beginnings play their prized part in every finished human accomplishment, for beginnings mean the birth of added progress.

I am nothing! If you could know the dream of what I would like to be, you would realize how little I have accomplished.
