Find things beautiful as much as you can, most people find too little beautiful.

There are colors which cause each other to shine brilliantly, which form a couple which complete each other like man and woman.

The sight of stars always sets me dreaming just as naively as those black dots on a map set me dreaming of towns and villages. Why should these points of light in the firmament, I wonder, be less accessible than the dark ones on the map of France? We take a train to go to Torascon or Roven and we take death to a star.

It constantly remains a source of disappointment to me that my drawings are not yet what I want them to be. The difficulties are indeed numerous and great, and cannot be overcome at once. To make progress is a kind of miner’s work; it doesn’t advance as quickly as one would like, and as others also expect, but as one stands before such a task, the basic necessities are patience and faithfulness. In fact, I do not think much about the difficulties, because if one thought of them too much one would get stunned or disturbed.

The great isn't something accidental; it must be willed.

The sight of stars makes me dream.

I am a man of passions, capable of and subject to doing more or less foolish things- which I happen to regret, more or less, afterwards.
