I passed blindly many things which belong to real and political life.
What I want to show in my work is the idea which hides itself behind so-called reality.
The important thing is first of all to have a real love for the visible world that lies outside ourselves as well as to know the deep secret of what goes on within ourselves.
There is nothing I hate more than sentimentality.
I believe the reason I love painting so much is that it forces one to be objective.
It was so wonderful outside that even the wild senselessness of this enormous death, whose music I hear again and again, could not disturb me from my great enjoyment!
