"I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it."

"The emotions are sometimes so strong that I work without knowing it. The strokes come like speech."

"As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed."

"I do not know myself how I paint it. I sit down with a white board before the spot that strikes me. I look at what is before my eyes, and say to myself, that white board must become something."
