He Who Wonders Discovers That This In

Wonder Is The Salt Of The Earth.

I Don't Grow Up. In Me Is The Small Child Of My Early Days.

I Might Be In The Basement. I'll Go Upstairs And Check. We Adore Chaos Because We Love To Produce Order. I Don't Use Drugs; My Dreams Are Frightening Enough.

In Mathematical Quarters, The Regular Division Of The Plane Has Been Considered Theoretically. ... [mathematicians] Have Opened The Gate Leading To An Extensive Domain, But They Have Not Entered This Domain Themselves. By Their Very Nature They Are More Interested In The Way In Which The Gate Is Opened Than In The Garden Lying Behind It.

Although I Am Even Now Still A Layman In The Area Of Mathematics, And Although I Lack Theoretical Knowledge, The Mathematicians, And In Particular The Crystallographers, Have Had Considerable Influence On My Work Of The Last Twenty Years. The Laws Of The Phenomena Around Us--order, Regularity, Cyclical Repetition, And Renewals--have Assumed Greater And Greater Importance For Me. The Awareness Of Their Presence Gives Me Peace And Provides Me With Support. I Try In My Prints To Testify That We Live In A Beautiful And Orderly World, And Not In A Formless Chaos, As It Sometimes Seems.
