I Am Not One Who Was Born

The Expression Of Beauty Is In Direct Ratio To The Power Of Conception The Artist Has Acquired.

I Too Am A Government.

Beauty Lies In Nature And Reveals, Once The Artist Has Perceived It, Its Own Expressive Power.

The Principle Of Realism Means Denial Of The Ideal.

I Deny That Art Can Be Taught, Or, In Other Words, Maintain That Art Is Completely Individual, And That The Talent Of Each Artist Is But The Result Of His Own Inspiration And His Own Study Of Past Tradition.
