A tree growing out of the ground is as wonderful today as it ever was. It does not need to adopt new and startling methods.

There are moments in our lives, there are moments in a day, when we seem to see beyond the usual- become clairvoyant. We reach then into reality. Such are the moments of our greatest happiness. Such are the moments of our greatest wisdom. It is in the nature of all people to have these experiences; but in our time and under the conditions of our lives, it is only a rare few who are able to continue in the experience and find expression for it.

Do not let the fact that things are not made for you, that conditions are not as they should be stop you. Go on anyway. Everything depends on those who go on anyway.

When the motives of artists are profound, when they are at their work as a result of deep consideration, when they believe in the importance of what they are doing, their work creates a stir in the world.

Colors are beautiful when they are significant.

Whatever you feel or think your exact state at the exact moment of your brush touching the canvas is in some way registered in that stroke.

It is harder to see than it is to express. The whole value of art rests in the artist's ability to see well into what is before him.
