ALL: The most beautiful paintings are those which you dream about when you lie in bed smoking a pipe, but which you never paint.
GAUGUIN: We dream and then we paint quietly.
GAUGUIN AND VAN GOGH: Thus Rembrandt painted angels. He paints a portrait of himself… in a mirror. He is still dreaming and…painting an unearthly angel….painting from imagination
