Art is nature as seen through a temperament.

Be guided by feelings alone. Abandon yourself to your first impression. If you really have been touched, you will convey to others the sincerity of your emotion.

Never lose the first impression which has moved you.

I work on all parts of my painting at once, improving it very gently until I find that the effect is complete.

Don't imitate, don't follow the others, or else you will lag behind them.

I always entreat the good Lord to give me my childhood back, that is to say, to grant that I may see nature and render it like a child, without prejudice.

...Art itself may be defined as a single minded attempt to render the highest kind of justice to the visible universe, by bringing to light the truth, manifold and one, underlying its every aspect.

The most important things in a painting are Form and Value. Color comes last - like a friend you welcome.

The first things to study are form and values. For me, these are the things that are the basics of what is serious in art.

It is better to be nothing than a follower of other painters. The wise man has said when one follows another one is always behind.

Be guided by feeling alone. We are only simple mortals, subject to error...

If all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth.

...what argument is left with someone you love if she is willing to break your heart?

The issues of wireless versus wireline gets very messy. And that's really an FCC issue, not a Google issue.

How we treat the earth basically effects our social welfare and our national security.

If there's one thing I can't bear, it's people who are wise during the event.

I loved radio for the music, concerts, parties and to think you could get paid for it.

If God calls me tomorrow I will go without a moment's turning back.

You cannot forget the past but you can forgive it.

What is done in love is done well.

What a joy it is to see really professional media manipulation.
