We construct and keep on constructing, yet intuition is still a good thing.

Everything vanishes round me and good works rise from me of their own accord.

Drawing is the art of taking a line for a walk.

The more horrible this world (as today, for instance), the more abstract our art, whereas a happy world brings forth an art of the here and now.

Color has got me. I no longer need to chase after it. It has got me for ever. I know it. That is the meaning of this happy hour.

Art should be like a holiday: something to give a man the opportunity to see things differently and to change his point of view.

I want to be as though new-born, knowing nothing, absolutely nothing. Then I want to do something modest; to work out by myself a tiny, formal motive, one that my pencil will be able to hold without technique.
