"I sent my large painting, everyone likes it, I think you will develop your literary talent and avenge me for all the insults and affronts you have received. I know from Picasso that you write art reviews in L'Intransigeant."
- HENRI ROUSSEAU, Letter to Guillaume Apollinaire (March 11, 1910)

"As a young man he did not receive an artistic education (and this is evident); it seems that in his later years, when he wanted to paint, he watched the masters with passion and was almost the only one among the moderns to guess their secrets. His faults consisted only sometimes in an excess of sentiment, more often in a popular bonhomie from which he could not escape and which contrasted quite sharply with his artistic projects and with the attitude he had been able to adopt in contemporary art. But what a wealth of qualities! And how significant that artistic youth has guessed them! We must congratulate them, especially if their intention is not only to honour them, but also to make them their own."

(L'Intransigeant, April 20, 1911)
