A good artist ought never to allow impatience to overcome his sense of the main end of art - perfection

If you knew how much work went into it, you wouldn't call it genius.

There is no greater harm than that of time wasted.

I live and love in God's peculiar light.

Read the heart and not the letter for the pen cannot draw near the good intent.

I already have a wife who is too much for me.. she is my art, and my works are my children.

I serve for the love of God and in Him have all my hope.
