Art must make you laugh a little and make you a little afraid. Anything as long as it doesn't bore.

Art is the most frenzied orgy man is capable of.

When I want to draw a camel I no longer limit myself, as I once did, to looking only at camels.

For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic. Normal means lack of imagination, lack of creativity.

There is no art without intoxication. But I mean a mad intoxication! Let reason teeter! Delirium!

In the name of what - except perhaps the coefficient of rarity - does man adorn himself with necklaces of shells and not spider's webs, with fox fur and not fox innards? In the name of what I don't know. Don't dirt, trash and filth, which are man's companions during his whole lifetime, deserve to be dearer to him and isn't it serving him well to remind him of their beauty?

Personally, I believe very much in values of savagery; I mean: instinct, passion, mood, violence, madness.
