“Bodies have their own light which they consume to live: they burn, they are not lit from the outside.”
Egon Schiele

“I was in love with everything- I wanted to look with love at the angry people so that their eyes would be forced to respond; and I wanted to bring gifts to the envious and tell them that I am worthless.”
Egon Schiele

“Art cannot be modern. Art is primordially eternal.”
Egon Schiele
