One Never Knows What Each Day Is

I Think About Sculpture All The Time. I Work At It For Ten To Twelve Hours A Day. I Even Dream About It. If As A Result I Was Only To Produce Something That Everyone Immediately Understood I Would't Have Been Thinking Very Profoundly.

I Sometimes Draw Just For Its Own Enjoyment.

All Art Should Have A Certain Mystery And Should Make Demands On The Spectator. Giving A Sculpture Or A Drawing Too Explicit A Title Takes Away Part Of That Mystery So That The Spectator Moves On To The Next Object, Making No Effort To Ponder The Meaning Of What He Has Just Seen. Everyone Thinks That He Or She Looks But They Don't Really, You Know.

Now I Really Make The Little Idea From Clay, And I Hold It In My Hand. I Can Turn It, Look At It From Underneath, See It From One View, Hold It Against The Sky, Imagine It Any Size I Like, And Really Be In Control Almost Like God Creating Something.

Discipline In Art Is A Fundamental Struggle To Understand Oneself, As Much As To Understand What One Is Drawing.
