He who works with his hands is a labourer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands, his head and his heart is a artist.

Francis of Assisi

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.

Thomas Merton

Art is not a handcraft, it is the transmission of feelings the artist has experienced.

Leo Tolstoy

You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.

Maya Angelou

Art should startle the viewer into thinking about the meaning of life.

Antoni Tapies
