If I Like It, I Say It's

I Love Bats! Women Are Scared Of Them. They Think Bats Can Get Caught In Their Hair, Don't They? But Bats Are The Most Beautiful Of Animals, Extraordinarily Delicate. Have You Observed Their Brilliant Little Eyes, Gleaming With Intelligence, And Their Skin, Silky As Velvet? And Look At All These Delicate Little Bones.

When We Did Cubist Paintings, Our Intention Was Not To Produce Cubist Paintings But To Express What Was Within Us. No One Laid Down A Course Of Action For Us, And Our Friends The Poets Followed Our Endeavour Attentively But They Never Dictated It To Us.

We Have Learned Nothing.

Are We To Paint What's On The Face, What's Inside The Face, Or What's Behind It?

The Trouble Is, We've Been Taught What To See And How To Render What We See. If Only We Could Be In The Position Of Those Men Who Did Those Wonderful Drawings In Lascaux And Altimira!
