Quote

Art is the proper task of life

Art is not a study of positive reality, it is the seeking for ideal truth

Treat a work of art like a prince. Let it speak to you first.

True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist.

Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed

Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything
