It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality is more important than the feeling for pictures.
As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed.
The more I think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more artistic than to love others.
Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well.
