Jean Renoir on Art

"Among seekers of truth, painters perhaps come closest to the discovering the secret of the balance of forces in the universe, and hence of man's fulfillment. That is why they are so important in modern life...Painters know that material needs are relative, and that the satisfactions of the mind are absolute"
-Jean Renoir, Renoir, My Father, p.395
