"I sometimes think I'm half mad with the desire for something I don't possess."

"I found that I could say things with colors and shapes that I couldn't say any other way—things I had no words for."

"I don't want to live in a world where I have to be careful about what I say or do."

"I have always been interested in the way the light falls on the mountains. It changes all the time."

"I have been surprised over and over again to find how different my work looks to different people."
