If I Love In Thee, Beloved, Only

Let It Be Enough For You To Have Bread And Live Virtuously And Poorly Like Christ, As I Do Here. I Live Meanly And Don't Bother About Life Or Honor ... And I Live With The Greatest Toil And A Thousand Worries. It Is Now About 15 Years Since I Had A Happy Hour.

Do Not Fret, For God Did Not Create Us To Abandon Us.

I Cannot Live Under Pressures From Patrons, Let Alone Paint.

I Dare Affirm That Any Artist... Who Has Nothing Singular, Eccentric, Or At Least Reputed To Be So, In His Person, Will Never Become A Superior Talent.

A Good Sculpture Can Be Rolled Downhill Without Breaking.
