Dreams form the bristles of the artist's brush.

I communicate my innermost perceptions through art.

When something is finished, that means it's dead, doesn't it? I believe in everlastingness. I never finish a painting - I just stop working on it for a while.

Drawing is the basis of art. A bad painter cannot draw. But one who draws well can always paint.

Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot see physically with his eyes.

I like painting because it's something I never come to the end of. Sometimes I paint a picture, then I paint it all out. Sometimes I'm working on fifteen or twenty pictures at the same time. I do that because I want to - because I like to change my mind so often. The thing to do is always to keep starting to paint, never finishing painting.

I seek a form of language which will express my ideas for our time.

If Picasso drips, I drip... For a long while I was with Cezanne, and now I am with Picasso.

If a painting of mine suits me, it is right. If it does not please me, I care not if all the great masters should approve it or the dealers buy it. They would be wrong.
