“Action is the foundational key to all success. ”

“When you come right down to it all you have is yourself. The sun is a thousand rays in your belly. All the rest is nothing.”

“Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction." ― Pablo Picasso”

“There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.”

“The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web. ”

“We have a definite but unknown quantity of experience at our disposal. As soon as the hourglass is turned, the sand will begin to run out and once it starts, it cannot stop until it's all gone.”

“We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.”
