• I have the gift of neither the spoken nor the
  written word, especially if I have to say
  something about myself or my work. Whoever wants
  to know something about me -as an artist, the
  only notable thing- ought to look carefully at my
  pictures and try and see in them what I am and
  what I want to do." -Gustav Klimt
