 I need to work to feel well. |
| This woman's work is exceptional. Too bad she's not a man. |
| Black is not a color. |
| No one can be a painter unless he cares for painting above all else. |
| I would kiss you, had I the courage. |
| There are no lines in nature, only areas of colour, one against another. |
| Color is a matter of taste and of sensitivity. |
| It is not enough to know your craft - you have to have feeling. Science is all very well, but for us imagination is worth far more. |
| You would hardly believe how difficult it is to place a figure alone on a canvas, and to concentrate all the interest on this single and universal figure and still keep it living and real. |
| The attacks of which I have been the object have broken the spring of life in me... People don't realize what it feels like to be constantly insulted. |
| There is only one true thing: instantly paint what you see. When you've got it, you've got it. When you haven't, you begin again. All the rest is humbug. |
| Insults are pouring down on me as thick as hail. |
