The art of stone in a Japanese garden is that of placement. Its ideal does not deviate from that of nature.

Appreciate the moment.

You can find out how to do something and then do it or do something and then find out what you did.

Everything is sculpture. Any material, any idea without hindrance born into space, I consider sculpture.

For me it is the direct contact of artist to material which is original, and it is the earth and his contact to it which will free him of the artificiality of the present and his dependence on industrial products.

I am always learning, always discovering.

Art should become as one with its surroundings.
