I Feel As A Horse Must Feel

Everyone Has Talent At Twenty-five. The Difficulty Is To Have It At Fifty.

No Art Is Less Spontaneous Than Mine. What I Do Is The Result Of Reflection And The Study Of The Great Masters.

Art' Is The Same Word As 'artifice,' That Is To Say, Something Deceitful. It Must Succeed In Giving The Impression Of Nature By False Means.

There Is Too Much Talk And Gossip; Pictures Are Apparently Made, Like Stock-market Prices, By Competition Of People Eager For Profits... All This Traffic Sharpens Our Intelligence And Falsifies Our Judgment.

You Must Aim High, Not In What You Are Going To Do At Some Future Date, But In What You Are Going To Make Yourself Do To-day. Otherwise, Working Is Just A Waste Of Time.
