It Is Better To Have A Good

Without Anxiety And Illness I Would Have Been Like A Ship Without A Rudder.

My Fear Of Life Is Necessary To Me, As Is My Illness. Without Anxiety And Illness, I Am A Ship Without A Rudder. My Art Is Grounded In Reflections Over Being Different From Others. My Sufferings Are Part Of My Self And My Art. They Are Indistinguishable From Me, And Their Destruction Would Destroy My Art. I Want To Keep Those Sufferings

All Art, Literature, And Music Must Be Born In Your Heart's Blood. Art Is Your Heart's Blood.

I Do Not Believe In The Art Which Is Not The Compulsive Result Of Man's Urge To Open His Heart

I Have Been Given A Unique Role To Play On This Earth: Given To Me By A Life Filled With Sickness, Ill-starred Circumstances And My Profession As An Artist. It Is A Life That Contains Nothing That Resembles Happiness, And Moreover Does Not Even Desire Happiness.
