The Observation Of Nature Is Part Of

It Is A Mistake For A Sculptor Or A Painter To Speak Or Write Very Often About His Job. It Releases Tension Needed For His Work.

I Think In Terms Of The Day's Resolutions, Not The Years'.

Nothing Raises The Price Of A Blessing Like Its Removal; Whereas, It Was Its Continuance Which Should Have Taught Us Its Value. [it Is Wise To Be Grateful Of What We Have While We Have It.]

All Good Art Has Contained Both Abstract And Surrealist Elements, Just As It Has Contained Both Classical And Romantic Elements - Order And Surprise, Intellect And Imagination, Conscious And Unconscious. Both Sides Of The Artist's Personality Must Play Their Part.

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.
