If You Can Imagine It...it Is Real

In The End There Is Only Matisse.

Something Sacred, That's It. We Ought To Be Able To Say That Such And Such A Painting Is As It Is, With Its Capacity For Power, Because It Is "touched By God."

That Inspiration Comes, Does Not Depend On Me. The Only Thing I Can Do Is Make Sure It Catches Me Working.

Variation Does Not Mean Evolution. If An Artist Varies His Mode Of Expression This Only Means That He Has Changed His Manner Of Thinking, And In Changing, It Might Be For The Better Or It Might Be For The Worse.

Art Is The Elimination Of The Unnecessary.
