Inside You There's An Artist

Mere Exactitude, Of Which Photography And Moulage [life Casting] Are The Lowest Forms, Does Not Inspire Feelings.

Black Is The Queen Of Colours.

As Paradoxical As It May Seem A Great Sculptor Is As Much A Colourist As The Best Painter, Or Rather The Best Engraver. He Plays So Skillfully With All The Resources Of Relief, He Blends So Well The Boldness Of Light With The Modesty Of Shadow, That His Sculptures Please One, As Much As The Most Charming Etchings.

I Believe That Photography Can Create Great Works Of Art, But Hitherto It Has Been Extraordinarily Bourgeois And Babbling. (1908)

Man Enjoys Living On The Edge Of His Dreams And Neglects The Real Things Of The World Which Are So Beautiful. The Ignorant And Indifferent Destroy Beautiful Things Merely By Looking At The Marble. Things That Remake The Soul Of Him Who Understands Them.
