"Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin of marvels."

 

"Give me a piece of charcoal and I will make you a picture, for the whole of painting is sacrifice and determination."

 

"United with reason, imagination is the Mother of the Arts and a source of their wonders."

 

"Always lines, never forms! But where do they find these lines in Nature! For my part I see only forms that are lit up and forms that are not. There is only light and shadow."
