The sensations of colors on the palette can be spiritual experiences.

Colour is a power which directly influences the soul.

There is no must in art because art is free.

Everything starts from a dot.

Color provokes a psychic vibration. Color hides a power still unknown but real, which acts on every part of the human body.

The observer must learn to look at the picture as a graphic representation of a mood and not as a representation of objects.

The artist must train not only his eye but also his soul.

To create a work of art is to create the world.

The spirit, like the body, can be strengthened and developed by frequent exercise. Just as the body, if neglected, grows weaker and finally impotent, so the spirit perishes if untended.

Color is a means to exert a direct influence on the soul.

The artist is the hand that, by touching this or that key, sets the soul vibrating automatically.

In a world full of cruelty and hatred, be loving and kind so that you may transform the perception of life.

All women are goddesses, and it's just a matter of letting that goddess-power shine - and if you don't try to be the biggest and baddest damn goddess you can be, you are selling yourself short.

... the time will come when no servant will be hired without a diploma from some training school, and a girl will as much expect to fit herself for house-maid or cook, as for dressmaker or any trade.

Art makes something a lot more visible or audible.
