My Garden Is My Most

My Work Is Always Better When I Am Alone And Follow My Own Impressions.

I Despise The Opinion Of The Press And The So-called Critics.

To Have Gone To All This Trouble To Get To This Is Just Too Stupid! Outside There's Brilliant Sunshine But I Don't Feel Up To Looking At It.

I Am Pleased With The Exhibition... Everything On Display Was Sold For A Good Price To Decent People. It Has Been A Long Time Since I Believed That You Could Educate Public Taste.

Impressionism Is Only Direct Sensation. All Great Painters Were Less Or More Impressionists. It Is Mainly A Question Of Instinct, And Much Simpler Than [john Singer] Sargent Thinks.
