One can speak poetry just by arranging colors well, just as one can say comforting things in music.

If I did not succeed I still thought that what I had worked on would be continued. Not immediately. But there are others who believe in things that are true.

Only when I fall do I get up again.

No blue without yellow and without orange, and if you do blue, then do yellow and orange as well, surely.

That this awareness of my own fallibility will prevent me from making many mistakes doesn't alter the fact that I'm bound to make a great many mistakes anyway. But if we fall, we get up again!

What a splendid thing watercolour is to express atmosphere and distance, so that the figure is surrounded by air and can breathe in it.

Seek only light and freedom and do not immerse yourself too deeply in the worldly mire.
