I Lost My Job As An Art

Painting Is A Faith, And It Imposes The Duty To Disregard Public Opinion.

Exaggerate The Essential, Leave The Obvious Vague.

I Consciously Choose The Dog's Path Through Life. I Shall Be Poor; I Shall Be A Painter.

The World Concerns Me Only In So Far As I Have A Certain Debt And Duty To It, Because I Have Lived In It For Thirty Years And Owe To It To Leave Behind Some Souvenir In The Shape Of Drawings And Paintings – Not Done To Please Any Particular Movement, But Within Which A Genuine Human Sentiment Is Expressed.

Love Always Brings Difficulties, That Is True, But The Good Side Of It Is That It Gives Energy.
