When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.

We all know that a good person can be a bad artist.But no one will ever be a genuine artist unless he is a great human being and thus also a good one.

If all life moves inevitably towards its end, then we must, during our own, colour it with our colours of love and hope.

All colors are the friends of their neighbors and the lovers of their opposites.

Color is vibration like music; everything is vibration.

For me a stained glass window is a transparent partition between my heart and the heart of the world.

Mine alone is the country of my soul.
