"There should be a law that no ordinary newspaper should be allowed to write about art. The harm they do by their foolish and random writing it would be impossible to overestimate - not to the artist, but to the public, blinding them to all but harming the artist not at all."
"If a work of art is rich and vital and complete, those who have artistic instincts will see its beauty, and those to whom ethics appeal more strongly than aesthetics will see its moral lesson. It will fill the cowardly with terror, and the unclean will see in it their own shame."
"With age comes wisdom, but sometimes age comes alone."
"Life imitates art far more than art imitates Life."
"Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead."
"The heart was made to be broken."
