I feel as though the world is a friendly boy walking along in the sun.

Art is a means to function thoroughly and passionately in a world that has a lot more to it than paint.

This telegram is a work of art if I say it is.

It is impossible to have progress without conscience

I don't think any one person, whether artist or not, has been given permission by anyone to put the responsibility of the way things are on anyone else

I don't really trust ideas - especially good ones... Rather, I put my trust in the materials that confront me, because they put me in touch with the unknown.

I prefer images that are less specific, so there is room for everyone's imagination.
