People are often unable to do anything, imprisoned as they are in I don't know what kind of terrible, terrible, oh such terrible cage.
Vincent Van Gogh

I work even in the middle of the day, in the full sunshine, and I enjoy it like a cicada.

It interests me tremendously to make copies... I started it by chance and I find it teaches me things.
