Everything is expressed through RELATIONSHIPS.

Recognizing and uniting with the universal therefore gives us the greatest aesthetic satisfaction, the greatest emotion of beauty. The more determinately (consciously) this recognition is experienced, the more intense our happiness. The more determinately (consciously) this union with the universal is felt, the more individual subjectivity declines.

I, too, find the flower beautiful in its outward appearance. But a deeper beauty lies concealed within.

The colored planes, as much by position and dimension as by the greater value given to color, plastically express only relationships and not forms.

abstract art is not the creation of another reality but the true vision of reality.

In art the search for a content which is collectively understandable is false; the content will always be individual.

Art on the contrary sought this harmony in practice [of art itself]. More and more in its creations it has given inwardness to that what surrounds us in nature, until, in Neo-Plasticism, nature is no longer dominant. This achievement of balance may prepare the way for the fulfillment of man and signal the end of (what we call) art.
