Who said “In the final analysis, a drawing simply is no longer a drawing, no matter how…”?

“A drawing is always dragged down to the level of its caption.”

“There is a relationship between cartooning and people like Mir= and Picasso which may not be understood by the cartoonist, but it definitely is related even in the early Disney.”

“I could draw Bloom County with my nose and pay my cleaning lady to write it, and I'd bet I wouldn't lose 10 % of my papers over the next twenty years. Such is the nature of comic-strips. Once established, their half-life is usually more than nuclear waste.”

“Matisse makes a drawing, then he makes a copy of it. He recopies it five times, ten times, always clarifying the line. He's convinced that the last, the most stripped down, is the best, the purest, the definitive one; and in fact, most of the time, it was the first. In drawing, nothing is better than the first attempt.”

“Nature is garrulous to the point of confusion, let the artist be truly taciturn.”

“When looking at any significant work of art, remember that a more significant one probably has had to be sacrificed.”

“To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers.”

“The art of mastering life is the prerequisite for all further forms of expression, whether they are paintings, sculptures, tragedies, or musical compositions.”

“Everything vanishes around me, and works are born as if out of the void. Ripe, graphic fruits fall off. My hand has become the obedient instrument of a remote will.”

“One eye sees, the other feels.”
