Jean Arp Quotes
Structures of lines, surfaces, forms, colours. They try to approach the eternal, the inexpressible above men. They are a denial of human egotism. They are the hatred of human immodesty, the hatred of images, of paintings.. Wisdom is the feeling for the coming reality, the mystical, the definite indefinite, the greatest definite.
