Quotes
[edit]- Slowly he was beginning to understand these shapes and why they were painted this way. Not the big flowering meat pies that Rubens took to bed, none of the pearly patina like gravy over big sides of Flemish mares, all golden and pink with big tits and strawberry nipples. Cézanne was something else. Not of the flesh, or only the world of the senses, but of the mind, the marrow, of thinkers and of the shape of nature out of Euclid.
- The Lion at Morning (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1954), bk. 5, ch. 30, pp. 168–9
