If only someone else could paint what I see, it would be marvellous, because then I wouldn't have to paint at all.

It is impossible to do a thing the way I see it because the closer I get the more differently I see.

It was always disappointing to see that what I could really master in terms of form boiled down to so little.

When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.

I've tried doing so, for it was never my intention to paint only with gray. But in the course of my work I have eliminated one color after another, and what has remained is gray, gray, gray!

You can only see in someone else what you see in yourself.
