Franois Auguste Ren Rodin
"Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit of which Nature herself is animated. "
"Nobody does good to man with impunity. "
"Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely. "
"The artist must create a spark before he can make a fire and before art is born, the artist must be ready to be consumed by the fire of his own creation. "
