If I create with my heart almost all my intentions remain. If it is with the head - almost nothing. An artist must not fear to be himself, to express only himself. If he is absolutely and entirely sincere, what he says and does will be acceptable to others.

Mine alone is the country of my soul.

What I mean by 'abstract' is something which comes to life spontaneously through a gamut of contrasts, plastic at the same time as psychic, and pervades both the picture and the eye of the spectator with conceptions of new and unfamiliar elements.

Great art picks up where nature ends.

What a genius, that Picasso. It is a pity he doesn't paint.

Art is foremost a state of mind, and only secondarily a problem of form.

For me, Christ has always symbolized the true type of the Jewish martyr.
