When I judge art, I take my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower. If it clashes, it is not art. – Paul Cezanne
I have nothing to hide in art. The initial force alone can bring anyone to the end he must attain. – Paul Cezanne
I ask you to pray for me, for once age has overtaken us, we find consolation only in religion. – Paul Cezanne
I must be more sensible and realize that at my age, illusions are hardly permitted and they will always destroy me. – Paul Cezanne
