"The artist is a mediumistic being who, from the labyrinth beyond time and space, seeks his way to a clearing."

"I am not interested in making art for the sake of art."

"I consider painting as a means to an end, not an end in itself."

"I was never interested in painting for its own sake, but rather in the ideas that could be expressed through painting."

"The great work of art is the one that is never finished."
