It took me 40 years to find out that painting is not sculpture.
The awareness of our own strength makes us modest.
Pure drawing is an abstraction. Drawing and colour are not distinct, everything in nature is coloured.
The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.
Doubtless there are things in nature which have not yet been seen. If an artist discovers them, he opens the way for his successors.
I allow no one to touch me.
