The Greatest Work Of An Artist Is

A Person Can Do Anything If They Only Will It Strongly Enough.

As Ability Goes, So Goes Our Fortune.

We Must Always Take From Nature What We Paint And Always Choose The Most Beautiful Things.

When I Investigate And When I Discover That The Forces Of The Heavens And The Planets Are Within Ourselves, Then Truly I Seem To Be Living Among The Gods.

I Prefer You To Take As Your Model A Mediocre Sculpture Rather Than An Excellent Painting, For From Painted Objects We Train Our Hand Only To Make A Likeness, Whereas From Sculptures We Learn To Represent Both Likeness And Correct Incidence Of Light.
