"The Ethics and Qualities of Paintings"

Great wisdom comes back to the naive; the basis of truth refound in simplicity,

Like that of pristine man clothed in grass and leaves.

Simple talk conveys essentials.

From the obscure bring the obvious; give soul to matter.

As bitter winter turns to spring.

Virile power held in restraint,

With mind concentrated and spirit penetrating.
