Art is not delivered like the morning paper; it has to be stolen from Mount Olympus.

I haven't the slightest idea what art is, but to be a painter is something of which you have to prove.

Art is one of the dirtiest words in our language; it's mucked up with all kinds of meanings. There's the art of plumbing; there's the art of almost anything that you can say.

Art means something very rare, an extraordinary achievement.

Painting is more important than art.
