Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.

Style is often something which locks the painter into the same vision, the same technique, the same formula during years and years, sometimes during one's whole lifetime.

You cannot go against nature. She is stronger than the strongest of men. We can permit ourselves some liberties, but in details only.
