“On utilise un miroir pour regarder son visage, mais on utilise les œuvres d'art pour contempler sa propre âme”
En anglais : "Art is the magic mirror you make to reflect your invisible dreams in visible pictures. You use a glass mirror to see your face: you use works of art to see your soul. But we who are older use neither glass mirrors nor works of art. We have a direct sense of life. When you gain that you will put aside your mirrors and statues, your toys and your dolls."
Autre traduction : "L'art est un miroir magique que nous créons pour transformer les rêves invisibles en images visibles. Pour voir notre visage, nous nous servons du miroir. Les oeuvres d'art rendent notre âme visible"
