There Is Weakness In Pretending To Know

In Every Human Being There Is The Artist, And Whatever His Activity, He Has An Equal Chance With Any To Express The Result Of His Growth And His Contact With Life. I Don't Believe Any Real Artist Cares Whether What He Does Is 'art' Or Not. Who, After All, Knows What Art Is?

Do Whatever You Do Intensely. The Artist Is The Man Who Leaves The Crowd And Goes Pioneering. With Him There Is An Idea Which Is His Life.

The Big Painter Is One Who Has Something To Say. He Thus Does Not Paint Men, Landscape Or Furniture, But An Idea.

If You Do Not Act On A Suggestion At First, You Grow Dull To Its Message.

Manet Did Not Do The Expected. He Was A Pioneer. He Followed His Individual Whim. Told The Public What He Wanted It To Know, Not The Time Worn Things The Public Already Knew And Thought It Wanted To Hear Again. The Public Was Very Much Offended.
