"One is not born a genius one becomes a genius."

Achievement

"I should like to be the landscape which I am contemplating, I should like this sky, this quiet water to think themselves within me, that it might be I whom they express in flesh and bone, and I remain at a distance. But it is also by this distance that the sky and the water exist before me. My contemplation is an excruciation only because it is also a joy. I can not appropriate the snow field where i slide. It remains foreign, forbidden, but I take delight in this very effort toward an impossible possession. I experience it as a triumph, not as a defeat."

Nature

"At night I would climb the steps to the Sacre-Coeur, and I would watch Paris, that futile oasis, scintillating in the wilderness of space. I would weep, because it was so beautiful, and because it was so useless."

Beauty

"Symbolism did not fall out of heaven or rise out of subterranean depths: it was elaborated like language, by the human reality."

Art

"If so few female geniuses are found in history, it is because society denies them any means of expression."

Society

"As far as I am concerned sexuality no longer exists. I used to call this indifference serenity: all at once I have come to see it in another light-it is a mutilation; it is the loss of a sense. The lack of it makes me blind to the needs, the pains, and the joys of those who do possess it."

Philosophy

"One night I summoned God, if He really existed, to show Himself to me. He didn't, and I never addressed another word to Him. In my heart of hearts I was very glad He didn't exist. I should have hated it if what was going on here below had had to end up in eternity."
