"It is the greatest art of the devil to convince us he does not exist." — Charles-Pierre Baudelaire

The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection

Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame

Art for art's sake is a philosophy of the well-fed

A man paints with his brains and not with his hands

Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known

Art ought never to be considered except in its relations with its ideal beauty
