Camille Pissarro

I regard it as a waste of time to think only of selling: one forgets one's art and exaggerates one's value.

Everything is beautiful, all that matters is to be able to interpret.

God takes care of imbeciles, little children and artists.

I'd date someone younger or older; age doesn't matter to me. Or looks, really - it's all about maturity.

So I write melodies - thirty, forty, fifty - then I cast them off until I have just two or three. If only one is needed, I go see the director and ask him to decide.

It is hardly surprising that women concentrate on the way they look instead of what is in their minds since not much has been put in their minds to begin with.
