One does not substitute oneself for the past, one merely adds to it a new link.
Art is a harmony parallel with nature.
The world doesn't understand me and I don't understand the world, that's why I've withdrawn from it.
I have not tried to reproduce nature; I have represented it.
Right now a moment of time is passing by!... We must become that moment.
An art which isn't based on feeling isn't an art at all... feeling is the principle, the beginning and the end; craft, objective, technique - all these are in the middle.
