I might then reap the rare reward of becoming famous, like the man who discovered the spots on Jupiter. I prefer, however, to keep silent.

You don't build a company or a foundation for fame.

  • My activities have never had anything to do with the idea of becoming famous or achieving success. I have always been concerned with getting people to listen to me.

What I really want is success in a philosophical sense: I want people to grasp something of the ideas and hopes which I express in painting.
