I Have Never Felt Salvation

The Best Of Artists Has No Conception That The Marble Alone Does Not Contain Within Itself.

Art Lives On Constraint And Dies Of Freedom.

Painting And Sculpture, Labour And Good Faith, Have Been My Ruin And I Continually Go From Bad To Worse. Better It Would Have Been For Me If I Had Set Myself To Making Matches In My Youth. I Should Not Be In Such Distress Of Mind.

As You Give Out, So Shall You Receive.

Whenever A Great Painter... Does A Work Which Appears To Be False And Lying, That Falsity Is Very True.
