In Art, Practice Always Comes Before Theory.

No Doubt, It Is Useful For An Artist To Know All The Forms Of Art Which Have Preceded Or Which Accompany His. That Is A Sign Of Strength If It Is A Question Of Looking For A Stimulus Or Recognizing Mistakes He Must Avoid.

We Must Not Discriminate Between Things. Where Things Are Concerned There Are No Class Distinctions. We Must Pick Out What Is Good For Us Where We Can Find It.

One Never Knows What One Is Going To Do. One Starts A Painting And Then It Becomes Something Quite Different.

What Do You Think An Artist Is? ...he Is A Political Being, Constantly Aware Of The Heart Breaking, Passionate, Or Delightful Things That Happen In The World, Shaping Himself Completely In Their Image. Painting Is Not Done To Decorate Apartments. It Is An Instrument Of War.

It Seems Strange To Me That Someone Thought Of Making Marble Statues.
