All real works of art look as though they were done in joy.

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.

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.

Color is only beautiful when it means something.

Be a warhorse for work and enjoy even the struggle against defeat.

An artist's job is to surprise himself. Use all means possible.

Feel the dignity of a child. Do not feel superior to him, for you are not.
