To Work From Nature Is To Improvise.

In Art, Progress Lies Not In An Extension, But In A Knowledge Of Limitations.

To Define A Thing Is To Substitute The Definition For The Thing Itself.

Emotion Should Not Be Rendered By An Excited Trembling; It Can Neither Be Added On Nor Be Imitated. It Is The Seed, The Work Is The Flower.

I Am Much More Interested In Achieving Unison With Nature Than In Copying It.

Poetry Is To A Painting What Life Is To Man.
