You too, find release only in art, you are one of those privileged people who have that gift, and you will be free and at peace so long as you make use of it.

The artist loves without wanting to possess, and no one on earth can understand that except other artists, that is why other people think us mad.

Brother, I’m not depressed and haven’t lost spirit. Life everywhere is life, life is in ourselves and not in the external.
