Paul Cezanne

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.

If isolation tempers the strong, it is the stumbling-block of the uncertain.

Genius is the ability to renew one's emotions in daily experience.

I feel sorry for generations of Labour voters and supporters who must look and wonder what on earth has gone wrong and what Labour is for.

We can be fervent in our disagreements without being factitious with our beliefs.

Most of my work has no conventional narrative, so it's not essential to have a beginning and an end - your attention can flow in and out of the experience rather than having a set entry point.
