“ormai Armani vende di tutto: c’è un Armani-libri, un Armani-mobili, un Armani-fiori e perfino un Armani-dolci. I libri sembrano fiori, i dolci hanno il sapore degli sgabelli e i fiori si potrebbero indossare.”
― Walter Siti, Resistere non serve a niente

“If you are only moved by color relationships, you are missing the point. I am interested in expressing the big emotions - tragedy, ecstasy, doom.”
― Mark Rothko

“I would like to say to those who think of my pictures as serene, whether in friendship or mere observation, that I have imprisoned the most utter violence in every inch of their surface.”
― Mark Rothko

“You might as well get one thing straight. I'm not an abstractionist... I'm not interested in the relationships of color or form or anything else. I'm interested only in expressing basic human emotions—tragedy, ecstasy, doom and so on. And the fact that a lot of people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures show that I communicate those basic human emotions... The people who weep before my pictures are having the same religious experience I had when I painted them. And if you, as you say, are moved only by their color relationships then you miss the point.”
― Mark Rothko
