“It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess.”

“I have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc., because the painting has a life of its own.”

“What remains is the impression of a clear rhythm, a logical & absolutely sure articulation of the picture plane.”

“Innovation is creativity with a job to do.”

“Logic is the foundation of the certainty of all the knowledge we acquire.”

“Nothing takes place in the world whose meaning is not that of some maximum or minimum.”

“When we lose contact, we see only hate,only injustice, a giant so greatits shadow blocks our sun.”
