"Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit by which nature herself is animated."
"Art, moreover, is taste. It is the reflection of the artist's heart upon all the objects that he creates."
"When you carve, never see the form in length, but always in thickness. Never consider a surface except as the extremity of a volume, as the point, more or less large, which it directs to you."
"When a good sculptor models a statue, whatever it is,he must first clearly conceive the general idea; then, until his task is ended, he must keep this idea of the whole in his mind in order to subordinate and ally to it every smallest detail of his work. And this is not accomplished without an intense effort of mind and concentration of thought."
