More quotes by Max Pechstein

What a variety of shapes exists in the lithograph when one prepares the stone for printing, etches it, and prints oneself. Above all, one must do the printing oneself!

Contented sleep releases the limbs. We await full moon. Await the dance!

I would like to express my longing for happy experiences. I do not want us to be for ever regretting. Art has been and remains the part of my life that brings me happiness.

Man, air, trees, world are laid bare and are one!

It is the sure certainty of having found unity with nature, this calm causes one of the strongest experiences.
