"The canvas is a court where the artist is prosecutor, defendant, jury and judge. Art without a trial disappears at a glance."

Previous Quote

If you will observe, it doesn't take A man of giant mould to make A giant shadow on the wall; And he who in our daily sight Seems but a figure mean and small, Outlined in Fame's illusive light, May stalk, a silhouette sublime, Across the canvas of his time.
