I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.

我覺得沒有什麼比愛人更是一種真正的藝術。

Painting is a faith, and it imposes the duty to disregard public opinion.

繪畫是種信仰，不在乎世人的意見是其必須肩負的使命。

One may have a blazing hearth in one’s soul and yet no one ever come to sit by it.
Passersby see only a wisp of smoke from the chimney and continue on the way.

在靈魂一角可能有著一座燃燒著熾熱火焰的火爐，然而無人前來取暖；

過客只瞥見煙囪的一抹輕煙，又匆匆繼續他們的旅程。

I dream of painting and then I paint my dream.

我夢想著繪畫，我畫我的夢想。

I want to do drawings which touch people...In figure or landscape I should wish to
express, not sentimental melancholy, but serious sorrow.

我想畫出觸動人心的素描……。我想透過人物或風景畫所表達的，不是傷感的憂鬱，而是真摯的悲傷。
