The Truly Original Artist Invents His Own

Jazz Is Rhythm And Meaning.

Instinct Must Be Thwarted Just As One Prunes The Branches Of A Tree So That It Will Grow Better.

An Artist Must Not Feel Under Any Constraint.

For My Part I Have Never Avoided The Influence Of Others. I Would Have Considered It Cowardice And A Lack Of Sincerity Toward Myself.

Drawing Is Like Making An Expressive Gesture With The Advantage Of Permanence.
