Tell me, do you think I'm going mad? I sometimes wonder, you know.
Paul Cezanne
Right now a moment of time is passing by!... We must become that moment.
Paul Cezanne
Everything vanishes, falls apart, doesn't it? Nature is always the same but nothing in her that appears to us lasts. Our art must render the thrill of her permanence, along with her elements, the appearance of all her changes. It must give us a taste of her Eternity.
Paul Cezanne
What I am trying to translate to you is more mysterious, it is entwined in the very roots of being, in the implacable source of sensations.
Paul Cezanne
It's not just about looking and copying, it's about feeling too
Paul Cezanne
See nature in terms of the cone, the cylinder, and the sphere.
Paul Cezanne
It's so fine and yet so terrible to stand in front of a blank canvas.
Paul Cezanne
Art first of all is optical. That's where the material of our art is: in what our eyes think.
Paul Cezanne

Paul Cezanne
I must be more sensible and realize that at my age, illusions are hardly permitted and they will always destroy me.
Paul Cezanne
I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting.
Paul Cezanne
Design and color are not distinct and separate. As one paints, one draws. The more the colors harmonize, the more the design takes form. When color is at it's richest, form is at its fullest.
Paul Cezanne
The strong experience of nature... is the necessary basis for all conception of art on which rests the grandeur and beauty of all future work.
Paul Cezanne
There is a logic of colors, and it is with this alone, and not with the logic of the brain, that the painter should conform.
Paul Cezanne
I ask you to pray for me, for once age has overtaken us, we find consolation only in religion.
Paul Cezanne
I'll always be grateful to the public of intelligent amateurs.
Paul Cezanne
I am a pupil of Pissarro.
Paul Cezanne
I am progressing very slowly, for nature reveals herself to me in very complex forms and the progress needed is incessant.
Paul Cezanne
You say a new era in art is preparing you sensed it coming continue your studies without weakening. God will do the rest.
Paul Cezanne
The sun penetrates me soundlessly like a distant friend that stirs up my laziness, fertilizes it. We bring forth life.
Paul Cezanne
