I Was Never The Kind Of Painter

It Is Therefore Indisputable That The Limbs Of Architecture Are Derived From The Limbs Of Man.

I Sometimes Set Myself Thinking And Imagining That I Find Amongst Men But One Single Art Or Science, And That Is Drawing Or Painting, All Others Being Members Proceeding Therefrom.

For Those Who Feel It, Nothing Makes The Soul So Religious And Pure As The Endeavor To Create Something Perfect; For God Is Perfection, And Whoever Strives After It, Is Striving After Something Divine. True Painting Is Only The Image Of The Perfection Of God, A Shadow Of The Pencil With Which He Paints, A Melody, A Striving After Harmony.

The Greatest Risk To Man Is Not That He Aims To High And Misses, But That He Aims To Low And Hits.

If People Knew How Hard I Worked At My Art, They Would Not Consider Me A Genius.
