It seems to me nowadays that the most important task for someone who is aging is to spread love and warmth whenever possible.

I can always paint very well with my eyes, but with my hands it doesn't always work out.

Every war carries within it the war which will answer it. Every war is answered by a new war, until everything, everything is smashed.

If all the people who have been hurt by the war were to exclude joy from their lives, it would almost be as if they had died.

While I drew, and wept along with the terrified children I was drawing, I really felt the burden I am bearing. I felt that I have no right to withdraw from the responsibility of being an advocate.

The development of the national spirit in its present form leads into blind alleys. Some condition must be found which preserves the life of the nation, but rules out the fatal rivalry among nations.

Men without joy seem like corpses.
