The white man who made the black a slave wants to look at him as an animal. But I believe that those who rise above prejudice will elevate human nature. Man likes to think that he is godlike... at least every nation thinks so about itself. Humanity arrogantly considers itself God's greatest creation, but I think it is more humbly to consider ourselves descendants of animals.

To paint from life, isn’t this a kind of slavery, doesn’t this show the artist’s lack of creativity? <...> If I want to paint the flaming ships of the Saint-Pierre raid on the day of the invasion, and if I know my business, I know what I want to do, won’t my work be more interesting than that which would be done by some naval officer, if he had the opportunity and had the courage to paint this motif from life? If I don’t succeed in painting, it means I’m not skilled enough, that’s all.
