Time and reflection change the sight little by little 'till we come to understand.

Painting is founded on the heart controlled by the head.

Everything is about to disappear. You've got to hurry up if you still want to see things.

To paint is not to copy the object slavishly, it is to grasp a harmony among many relationships.

I have sworn to die painting.

A thousand painters ought to be killed yearly. Say what you like: I'm every inch a painter.

Two sittings a day of my models and I'm totally exhausted.
