Max Beckmann

Art is creative for the sake of realization, not for amusement... for transfiguration, not for the sake of play.

What I want to show in my work is the idea which hides itself behind so-called reality.

It was so wonderful outside that even the wild senselessness of this enormous death, whose music I hear again and again, could not disturb me from my great enjoyment!

I always was kind of on the edge of the church when I was fully in it, cos I was always asking the questions... And I could never believe blindly.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.

You probably found 'How to Survive a Robot Uprising' in the humor section. Let's just hope that is where it belongs.
