The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

A real work of art destroys, in the consciousness of the receiver, the separation between himself and the artist.

Art is a microscope which the artist fixes on the secrets of his soul, and shows to people these secrets which are common to all.

The object of art like every other product creates a public which is sensitive to art and enjoys beauty.

Art can compel people freely, gladly, and spontaneously to sacrifice themselves in the service of man.

Once you take yourself too seriously the art will suffer.
