The madman thinks he is sane. I know I am mad.

Wars have never hurt anybody except the people who die.

It is not necessary for the public to know whether I am joking or whether I am serious, just as it is not necessary for me to know it myself.

Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.

There is only one difference between a madman and me. I am not mad.

Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing.
