“Art is a kind of innate drive that seizes a human being and makes him its instrument. The artist is not a person endowed with free will who seeks his own ends, but one who allows art to realize its purpose through him. As a human being he may have moods and a will and personal aims, but as an artist he is "man" in a higher sense— he is "collective man"— one who carries and shapes the unconscious, psychic forms of mankind.” - C.G. Jung

"The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel." - Piet Mondrian

"Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better." - Andre Gide

"If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; ...if from the head, almost nothing. "
- Marc Chagall

"An artist is a creature driven by demons. He doesn't know why they chose him and he's usually too busy to wonder why."
- William Faulkner

"He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist." — Saint Francis of Assisi
