"I saw an exhibition of Miro once. Miro the painter. His very last
painting was a dot. I was wondering why everyone says hes a great
painter. I can make dots. Yet he is a great painter. I looked at his
evolution. First I thought he couldn't draw. Then I saw his early
drawings, and they're works of art. His figures are full of detail, his
landscapes. Its like looking at a photograph. So I looked at his
evolution, and saw that gradually there were fewer details. He was
paying less attention to the external, and more to the internal. I
thought about it, that little dot, and I understood. Everything else was
false, he had just retained the truth."
