Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit of which Nature herself is animated.: Auguste Rodin
The artist must create a spark before he can make a fire and before art is born, the artist must be ready to be consumed by the fire of his own creation.: Auguste Rodin
