  1. There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.
  2. If you take my sayings & explode them in the air they're only sayings. But if you fit them together correctly, you will have the whole story
  3. We make things for somebody. The idea of art for art's sake is a hoax.
  4. If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
  5. Freedom. You must be very careful with that. In painting as in everything else. Whatever you do, you find yourself once more in chains.
  6. @safetyphoto There is no encounter without injury.
  7. @davegray @counternotions What ideas and conclusions you have got I obtained too, but instinctively, unconsciously http://tinyurl.com/okbx5o
  8. Action is the foundational key to all success.
  9. It isn’t up to the painter to define the symbols. Otherwise it would be better if he wrote them out in so many words!
  10. @safetyphoto Accidents, try to change them -- it's impossible. The accidental reveals man.
  11. @safetyphoto I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.
  12. Work is a necessity for man. Man invented the alarm clock.
  13. To copy others is necessary, but to copy oneself is pathetic.
  14. One must act in painting as in life, directly.
  15. Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
  16. Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.
  17. It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.
  18. Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.
  19. I paint things as I think them, not as I see them.
  20. He can who thinks he can, and he can't who thinks he can't. This is an inexorable, indisputable law.
