More quotes by 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
We live in a rainbow of chaos.
Paul Cezanne
I am a pupil of Pissarro.
Paul Cezanne
I'll always be grateful to the public of intelligent amateurs.
Paul Cezanne
Everything in nature takes its form from the sphere, the cone and the cylinder.
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

Paul Cezanne
Keep good company - that is, go to the Louvre.
Paul Cezanne
There is no model, there is only color.
Paul Cezanne
All my compatriots are asses compared to me.
Paul Cezanne
Painting is damned difficult - you always think you've got it, but you haven't.
Paul Cezanne
It is impossible for emotion not to come on us in thinking of that time now flowed away.
Paul Cezanne
The truth is in nature, and I shall prove it.
Paul Cezanne
I am not altogether displeased with the shirt-front.
Paul Cezanne
I ask you to pray for me, for once age has overtaken us, we find consolation only in religion.
Paul Cezanne
The Louvre is a good book to consult, but it must only be an intermediary. The real and immense study that must be taken up is the manifold picture of nature.
Paul Cezanne
