More quotes by Agnes Denes

One thing that's paramount in my life is that I am alone. I'm a loner. And yet I have many friends and I don't feel lonely. And I even like my own company. But when I'm alone, it's to read or write. I'm in my thoughts. Mostly I'm learning.
Agnes Denes
I study what I work with. I studied all these different fields of science that I needed for my work. I studied how to mine a landfill and what to plant in it. It's fascinating because you learn a new field each time.
Agnes Denes
The tree is made by nature, mathematics by people. And combining the two is creating this beautiful alliance between humanity and nature. That's why my forests are mathematical expansion systems, all of them.
Agnes Denes
We use up words as we use up images. We use up everything, and that's good, because it makes us grow.
Agnes Denes
People have too many problems during the day they don't want to think.
Agnes Denes
Most wonderful things are unconscious.
Agnes Denes
Thinking has an understructure and underpinnings.
Agnes Denes
What I did for my last act as a painter, if you call me a painter, was to photograph the weave of the canvas, and enlarge it and enlarge it until it became like a landscape.
