I have taught my students not to apply rules or mechanical ways of seeing.

I prefer to see with closed eyes.

Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.

Every perception of color is an illusion, we do not see colors as they really are. In our perception they alter one another.

Easy-to know that diamonds-are precious, Good-to learn that rubies-have depth, But more-to see that pebbles-are miraculous.

We never really perceive what color really is, as it physically is. This fact makes color the most relative medium in art.

Abstraction is real, probably more real than nature.

Color is like cooking. The cook puts in more or less salt, that's the difference!

In order to use color effectively it is necessary to recognize that color deceives continually.

As we do not see squares in nature, I thought that it is man-made. But I have corrected myself. Because squares exist in salt crystals, our daily salt.

Learn to see and to feel life; that is, cultivate imagination, because there are still marvels in the world, because life is a mystery and always will be. But be aware of it.

Blessing and obedience do comfortably and mysteriously coexist.

Within the first few months I discovered that being a president is like riding a tiger. A man has to keep riding or be swallowed.

Yes, Heaven is thine; but this Is a world of sweets and sours; Our flowers are merely—flowers.

I've played everything but a harp.

There is no question that the language of "felt thought" must be quarried from our personal depths. Like the best gold, it does not lie on the surface.

The only way to test a hypothesis is to look for all the information that disagrees with it.

Our actions are in our own hands, but the consequences of them are not. Remember that, my dear, and think twice before you do anything.

The best way to control cow and sheep is to give them a big grazing field.

It's harder to make something good when you can't curse all the time.

A lot of the time there is a lot of melancholy in the lyrics.
