“To create is always to speak of childhood.”

“One must be absolutely modern.”

“One sees clearly only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes.”

“But where are the snows of yesteryear?”

“The sky is pretty like an angel.”

“Art is the reflection that the dazzled human soul gives back of the splendor of the beautiful.”

“If the world were clear, art would not be.”

“Art is born of constraints, lives of struggles, and dies of freedom.”

“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.”

“Only children know what they are looking for.”

“Common sense tells us that the things of the earth exist only a little, and that true reality is only in dreams.”

“Art hovers around the truth, but with the firm intention not to burn itself.”

“Only through art can we emerge from ourselves and know what another person sees.”

“Sight does not master the pictures, it is the pictures which master one's sight. They flood one's consciousness.”

“Art is the premonition of truth.”

“Genius is childhood rediscovered at will.”

“Perfumes, colors, and sounds respond to one another.”

“Tears fall in my heart as rain falls on the town.”
