Experience has two things to teach. The first is that we must correct a great deal and the second, that we must not correct too much.
Eugene Delacroix
If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing everything goes through us.
Eugene Delacroix
Give me some mud, and I will paint you a woman's flesh.
Eugene Delacroix
Nature creates unity even in the parts of a whole.
Eugene Delacroix
