Paul Cezanne
I wish to die painting.
Paul Cezanne
I am not altogether displeased with the shirt-front.
Paul Cezanne

Paul Cezanne
I paint as if I were Rothschild.
Paul Cezanne
I want to die painting.
Paul Cezanne
The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.

Paul Cezanne
There is no model, there is only color.
Paul Cezanne
Tell me, do you think I'm going mad? I sometimes wonder, you know.
Paul Cezanne
Genius is the ability to renew one's emotions in daily experience.
Paul Cezanne
Painting, like any art, comprises a technique, a workmanlike handling of material, but the accuracy of a tone and the fictitious combination of effects depend entirely on the choice made by the artist.
Paul Cezanne
You have to hurry up if you want to see something, everything disappears.
Paul Cezanne
The truth is in nature, and I shall prove it.
Paul Cezanne
