Since I don't smoke, I decided to grow a mustache - it is better for the health. However, I always carried a jewel-studded cigarette case in which, instead of tobacco, were carefully placed several mustaches, Adolphe Menjou style. I offered them politely to my friends: "Mustache? Mustache? Mustache?" Nobody dared to touch them. This was my test regarding the sacred aspect of mustaches.

Knowing how to look is a way of inventing.

I want to perceive and understand the hidden powers and laws of things, in order to have them in my power.

I will be sof brief, I have already finished.

The reason some portraits don't look true to life is that some people make no effort to resemble their pictures.

Many people do not reach their eighties because they spend too much time in their forties.

Right now I'm the greatest. I don't say this through vanity. It's just that the rest are so bad.
