Art upsets science reassures.

Truth exists; only lies are invented.

Thanks to the oval I have discovered the meaning of the horizontal and the vertical.

There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.

Art is a wound turned into light.

The painter thinks in terms of form and color. The goal is not to be concerned with the reconstitution of an anecdotal fact, but with constitution of a pictorial fact.

Woman was merely man's helpmate, a function which pertains to her alone. She is not the image of God but as far as man is concerned, he is by himself the image of God.

I don't follow any organized religion, but I do believe in the idea of god as a verb - being love and light. And that we are part of everything as everything is part of us.
