I understand how you could see something in the root of a tree, a crack in the wall, in an eroded stone or pebble. But marble? It comes off in blocks and doesn't evoke any image. It does not inspire.

The only thing that's important is the legend created by the picture, and not whether it continues to exist itself.

People want to find a 'meaning' in everything and everyone. That's the disease of our age...

Two of the most frustrated trades are dentists and photographers - dentists because they want to be doctors, and photographers because they want to be painters.

What I want is that my picture should evoke nothing but emotion.

I imitate everyone except myself.

Cubism is not a reality you can take in your hand. It's more like a perfume, in front of you, behind you, to the sides, the scent is everywhere but you don’t quite know where it comes from.
