Hokusai

"At 75 I'll have learned something of the pattern of nature, of animals, of plants, trees, birds, fish and insects.

"When I am 80 you will see real progress. At 90 I shall have cut my way deeply into the mysteries of life itself.

"At 100 I shall be a marvelous artist. At 110, everything I create; a dot, a line, will jump to life as never before."
