No one could have less faith in the absolute and definitive importance of the work created by man, because I believe that this world is nothing but a dream.

I am dominated by one thing, an irresistible, burning attraction towards the abstract.

I have never looked for dream in reality or reality in dream. I have allowed my imagination free play, and I have not been led astray by it.

Nature is simply the opportunity for the artist to express himself.

Color must be thought, imagined, dreamed.

I believe only in what I do not see.

I believe neither in what I touch nor what I see. I only believe in what I do not see, and solely in what I feel.

Think colour! Know how to imagine it!

Compromise, if not the spice of life, is its solidity. It is what makes nations great and marriages happy

You are not broken. You are not a problem to be solved. Solving your “problem”, whatever you perceive your problem or problems to be, is not the key to happiness.

Sometimes it is not right to wait for the right train. Take any train instead of rotting at the station! In other words, be realistic!

And as ensemblists start being asked to do more things that require an insane skill set, that inherent value will, I hope, be held up where it deserves to be.

Love is a war of lightning, and two bodies ruined by a single sweetness.

Words are your business, boy. Not just the word. Words are everything. The key to the rock, the answer to the question.

Self destroyer, wreck your health, destroy friends, destroy yourself. The time device of self destruction, lies, confusion, start eruption.
