The fact that people break down and cry when confronted with my pictures

(a painting of mine)

shows that I can communicate those basic human emotions.. the people who weep before my pictures are having the same religious experience I had when painting them. And if you say you are moved only by their color relationships then you miss the point.

It is really a long stretch to use Rothko's quotes alongside with my paintings, for his vision is something which I can only glimpse. But, his thoughts really touch me, his life also.
